missing first names in R906

[Rossano]

In 2 different Karteikarten of him I have Helmut and Hellmut for Maj. Maneval. The strange thing is that in Internet too there are Helmut and Hellmut. So which one is the 100% correct one ?

[Rossano]

Now a hard nut, a Müller. His K.Karte gives 3 info only :
1) "ehemal. E-Offz."
2) in "june 44" he was "Maj."(no date, no RDA)
3) "Fried.Tr.Teil : WBK. Tauberbischofsheim"
Who knows his first name ? Thanks

Hello !

Many thanks for posting another excellent set of informations
from your database.

For me very interesting, that at the end of the war he became
Führer of Festungs-Infanterie-Bataillon 1464.
I think that is a very good example, how these type of units were formed!

Reagrding the question :
>>At some point, I believe the Dienststellen für Eignungsuntersuchungen were renamed Personalprüfstellen,
but I don't know when.<<

It was the other way round :
According to Absolon, Die Wehrmacht im Dritten Reich, Bd. V, S.82 :
>>Die "psychologischen Prüfstellen" wurden gem. Vfg. OKH vom 23.8.1939 (HVBl. B S. 266 Nr. 390)
in "Dienststellen für Eignungsuntersuchungen" umbenannt. <<

Best regards,
hero.

Many thanks Dave !

Hello
In the Karteikarte of Hptm. Mungai in this roll there is the following data :
"7.44 Btl.Fhr. b. d. 362.ID"
"8.44 Schreiben Maj. Gruber an Otl. v. Albert"
Whilst I believe that I know who is this Gruber, I can´ t say the same for this Otl.
The only Otl. v. Albert I know of is a W.Fürs.Offz. and so I hardly believe that the one mentioned in this Karteikarte it´s him.
Was there in aug. 44 another Otl. v. Albert ? Maybe in the 362.ID ?

[Rossano]

Nothing above ?
Now I just found a very data-poor Karteikarte of a Preuss.
No rank, no RDA, no first name, no Fr.Tr.Teil, but only :
"3.45 Kdr. Fest.Inf.Btl.1466"
I wonder whether somebody from the poor data can recognize him and add the missing data.
Thanks + rgds.

[Rossano]

A new officer
Maj. dR. (RDA. 1.2.43) Reichenbach
48 Jahre (counting back from 1943 or 1944 ?)
First name ? Eventual assignments in WW 2 ?

[Rossano]

Now a difficult Hptm. dR. Reiher (no other data available).
First name (and eventually some assignments in WW 2) ?

[Rossano]

Hello
In this roll I found a K.Karte of Otl. Schaar (no first name)
Hans (in his list) has Christof for him whilst Invenio has Christoph
What is absolutely true ? Pls. official doc. evidence only.
Thanks

[Rossano]

What about Maj. d.R. Scherber geb. 1890 aus WK.XIII in this roll (and another Maj. d.R. Loos in another roll, but no more data) ? Are their first names (and possibly some of their assignments in WW 2) known ? Thanks
Oops, I forgot another Maj. d.R., Schiebel, in this roll (no other data). First name etc. ?

[Dave Danner]

Probably Fritz Scherber, *02.08.1890 in Fürth in Mittelfranken. He was a Leutnant der Reserve in the 3. bayerische Infanterie-Regiment in World War I and a Lehrer in Rittersbach bei Georgensgmünd. Both Fürth and Rittersbach were in Wehrkreis XIII.

[Rossano]

Glad to read You again dear Dave. Thanks

[Rossano]

I got a new one, Otl.(1.4.42) Schnaars (Fr.Tr.Teil: Tr.Üb.Pl. Münsingen)
It must be a difficult one because I found him in many sources and lists but all without first name. Who knows/has it ? Thanks

[Dave Danner]

The Bundesarchiv has a file for an OTL Heinrich Schnaars, *20.3.1901. That's likely your man.
