German Rank Question

#1

Post by Revellations » 19 Mar 2014, 13:18

I have on a list of German officers one with the rank of: 'Hptm.d.R. z.V'

I know it is Hauptmann der Reserve but is that special purpose at the end...what does that mean if it is? Temporarily promoted to that rank or something else?

Thanks in advance.
