speedytop Posted July 30, 2020 Share Posted July 30, 2020 Hi, they used the word "Kronanwalt", based on the British law, for a "Staatsanwalt". In 1963 Hannover was a kingdom; they lost this "title" after the war from 1866. Please switch in the link to the English version. Uwe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saschaw Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 (edited) I don't want to be a spoilsport, but why do we assume this Langensalza medal is to the mentioned attorney, and not to some enlisted man who of course would not appear in a states handbook? Albrecht is no uncommon surname in northern Germany. I'm not saying it couldn't be his - but neither do I see a reason to think it is, to be honest!

paul wood Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 I think thr Langensalza is a lovely underpriced medal with potential for considerable fun especially with an uncomon naming. p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clausen Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 Interesting subject! I had no idea that named could be listed in the above mentioned book. I have a medal named to “H V Rohden”. Any chance of him being in the book? Bjorn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
