I have just added this entry. The topic was a pic request and is right now a photo thread by nature. Should be quite ok and sufficient for
Trowitz, Adolf -> Generalmajor Adolf Trowitz

It will be much appreciated by the "generals" community of the forum I think, if we go on there with further additions.
