    Hello, a nice Bluse for a major of Königlich Bayerisches Schwere-Reiter-Regiment Nr. 1

    It would be nice to ID but too many candidates were major 1916-1918

    Would  anyone be able to help me narrow the list of possible candidates to the original wearer of this tunic?

    Thanks to Glenn for the list.The man would have had an EKI, ano9ther great badge, maybe would badge. And a long medal bar judging from the loops. There are enough loops for a 10 old style Bavarian, a 12 place wartime ribbon bar, or a roughly 8 place medal bar.  

     

    Hippolyt von Kiliani (7 January 1914) 
    Konrad Prinz von Bayern (10.9.14) à la suite
    Heinrich Rhomberg (3 November 1914)
    Eckart von Pappus und Trazberg, Frhr. zu Landenberg und Rauhenzell (19 May 16)
    Heinrich Prinz von Bayern (serving with the Infanterie-Leib-Regiment)
    Karl Ritter von Gonnermann (18 January 1917)
     

    I know there are still some old hand historians still on this forum. Good ol Rick would have spent hours helping, rest his sole… I sure miss Rick L.
