Is it possible for you to find his brother Generaloberst Adolf Louis Theodor Richard von Schubert in the same book? I would be very thankful. Maybe correct: Richard Theodor Ludwig Leopold von Schubert? Edited May 1, 2021 by Deutschritter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deutschritter Posted May 1, 2021 Author Share Posted May 1, 2021 I just read, there was even a third brother, General der Artillerie Theodor Ludwig Hermann Schubert.

Deutschritter Posted May 3, 2021 Author Share Posted May 3, 2021 (edited) I pretty much have Richard von Schubert's awards up to 1911, and I also have a few for WW I. I'm sure I am missing some, does anyone know more? Here my short list: Wiederholungsspange (1914) zum Eisernen Kreuz II. Klasse (1870) Eisernes Kreuz (1914), I. Klasse für die Kämpfe an der Aisne Pour le Mérite am 28. August 1916 als General der Artillerie und Kommandierender General des XXVII. Reserve-Korps bei der 4. Armee Schwerter zum Großkreuz des Roten Adlerordens Schwarzer Adler-Orden am 11. oder 20. März 1917 Verwundetenabzeichen (1918) in Schwarz Edited May 3, 2021 by Deutschritter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
