Hello Phi, I can't find much on GM Bünau, Heinrich. I found him as commander of Regt 3 (Brandenburg 20) from March 3, 1903 until Sept 14, 1905, at which time he was transferred to Glatz. And then he disappears from view, no records found for him during WW1. Being born in 1850 he may have retired before 1914, and died March 14, 1919.There are 5 other Heinrichs, but the one born in 1850 seems to be the only one to be promoted to a General's rank. Harry
Sorry the one I am after was born 27.9.1893 and he died 15.8.1943 Gen Major 1.2.1927 chr General der Infanterie a.D. 27.8.1939. By tyhe way do you have the christain name of a Generalmajor Edelbuettel Inf Führer III to 1.11.1926
