Hi Hucks216,
Thank you for this information, it is indeed the same man. I have gathered other information on this officer elsewhere. His name was Erich Ernst Wilhelm Kramme, born on 03/04/1875 in Berlin. He died on 19/04/1959, also in Berlin. He would also have been a Major in the Orstkommandantur I./727 in Berlin Wilmersdorf, Hindenburgstr. 19 before going to Bordeaux in 1942.
My contact has a sabre belonging to him with the date 1 July 1941. I will try to recover photos of this sabre and show them on the forum.
Thanks again.
sincerely
Joel

He has at least one file in the Bundesarchiv at Berlin-Lichterfelde.

Hello Hucks216
Thank you for your feedback. I'm new to this, but is this file available online? Or do I have to apply to the Bundesarchiv in Berlin-Lichterfeld to obtain a copy?
Thank you in advance.
sincerely
Joel

You can try and apply for a copy of the file but depending on what the file contains, they might not provide one. You can also hire a researcher who can copy it for you.

Many thanks hucks216. Now all I need to do is find a researcher willing to help me with this. If anyone reads me and is comfortable with this kind of request, any help is welcome.
Thanks in advance.
sincerely
