Max Erwin von Scheubner-Richter (help needed)

[Deutschritter]

Gentlemen, I need some help on the military career of Dr.-Ing. Max Erwin von Scheubner-Richter, some sources state Max-Erwin, others Ludwig Maximilian Erwin von Scheubner-Richter. He served with the Imperial Russians, with the Bavarian Army in WWI and with the Freikorps (until the Kapp-Putsch). Anything you have would be great: Correct birth name (Max Erwin Richter?), ranks achieved (Leutnant, maybe Oberleutnant?), decorations, wounded (? or just malaria?). Thanks so much ... if anyone has apicture in unifrom, please post.

I have sent you a file taken from ancestry,  Please let me know if you have any questions.

 

As you may recall, I assisted you with Ernst v. Behr. That's how I have your e-mail.

Thank you so much, Andy, this is great. Sadly nothing on 1918, this is when he (maybe) was promoted to Oberleutnant and received the EK I. The other things are just great! What could the decoration between the MVO4X and the Rote-Kreuz-Medaille be? Thanks again!

I believe "L. Hanseat. Kreuz" " =  Lübeckisches Hanseatenkreuz.
