Deruelle Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 Hi Over the years I managed to reunite a lot of photos from this unit LIR 133. The photos come from the collection of Oberleutnant d.R. Kurt Lüder. Between parade, regimental life and others, we have a good overview of the life at that time. There must be more photos, but it took me more than ten years to get them all together. I am still trying to identify some of the names so I can add them to the post later. Enjoy Christophe 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freiherr Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 (edited) Hi Christophe Very nice! Third from bottom of your pics Man behind FA III kind of being the only person in his row was GenAdj GdK Ludwig Moritz Camillio FrHr v Müller Thanks Elwyn Edited May 18, 2021 by freiherr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freiherr Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 7th pic from bottom on horse back was then ObstLt Paul Benno Karl Francke, Stab IR 133, later GenMj. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deruelle Posted May 19, 2021 Author Share Posted May 19, 2021 Thanks Elwyn, Have you got the name of the General who is at the left of the King FA of Saxe ? Thanks Christophe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freiherr Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 (edited) Hi Christophe, If ObLt Lüder was in any way connected to RIR 133, my guess for the general would be GenLt Max Morgenstern Döring, Kmdr of 24 Res Div the superior formation of RIR 133. I think I can see the general in question wearing glasses like Morgenstern Döring did. If we stick with LIR 133, then the only Saxon superior formation kmdr that remotely looked like the general in the picture would be Horst v Tettenborn of 45 Ldw Brig. v Tettenborn only became GenMj on 15.07.18 and probably would not be so highly decorated and was fighting on the Eastern Front. For ObStLt Francke, the conenction to LIR was actually closer. Francke was later Kmdr of IR 179. I/IR 179 was used to form I/LIR 133] Thanks Elwyn Husaren Officer with Flügeladjutant's aiguilette was more than likely at this point Major or Oberstleutnant Harry Freiherr v Fritsch. He was 1 Esk Husaren Rgt 19 and was the only Husaren FlüAdj of FA III I have on my files. Thanks Edited May 19, 2021 by freiherr 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freiherr Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 (edited) I always speculated Husar on the extreme left to be FrHr v Fritsch..... seems to fit Would anyone have his Date of Birth and Date of Death? Edited May 19, 2021 by freiherr 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoh1851 Posted May 29, 2021 Share Posted May 29, 2021 Speaking of the Saxon Regiment 133 I found this photo of an officer of the (active, Reserve or Landwehr) Infantry Regiment 133 in my collection. Unfortunately unnamed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lars Rainer Posted April 10, 2023 Share Posted April 10, 2023 LIR 133 walczyło na moich terenach - Polska Świętokrzyskie. Znajdujemy po nich pamiątki choćby fragment Pickelhaube. Proszę o informację czy te zdjęcia mają podpisane miejscowości?Być może są wykonane w Polsce. Są również cmentarze 133 LIR A tak wyglądał pierwotnie: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
