Deutschritter Posted February 26, 2022 Posted February 26, 2022 (edited) Gentlemen, I am looking for information on Friedrich Fritsch (full name?). Fritsch supposedly went to the army 1905, but I find that somewhat late. Now I did find a Fritsch in the Rangliste 1902 with the Feldartillerie-Regiment von Podbielski (1. Niederschlesisches) Nr. 5, there they have him as Leutnant with Patent from 22 April 1902. So he must have came from the Kadettenkorps with that rank at the age of 18. I just saw there is another Fritsch (Rangliste 1908) from the 2. Hannoversches Ulanen-Regiment Nr. 14, Leutnant with Patent from 22 May 1906. But which is the Fritsch I am looking for? Was he made Hauptmann/Rittmeister in WW I? Any help on his career would be greatly appreciated. Thank you! Edited February 26, 2022 by Deutschritter
Glenn J Posted February 26, 2022 Posted February 26, 2022 Morning Andreas, He was originally an active Saxon field artillery officer. In 1914 he was attached to the Intendantur of the XII. Armeekorps. Regards Glenn 1
