Graf Posted January 11, 2022 Author Share Posted January 11, 2022 So far i found he reached the Rank of Commander He was born in Bombay India in 1905. No surprise he was born in India, since his father was an Officer from the British Army -reached rank of Major. Killed in Action in Belgium in 1914 Thanks again for the link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
