Oberleutnant zur See Johannes Oswald Lohs (24.06.1889 - 14.08.1918).

http://www.einsiedel.info/html/berbisdo ... rasse.html

One of my favorite Ritter des Ordens Pour le Merite Kaiserlichen Marine is Kapitanleutnant Kurt Hartwig (21.01.1887 - 16.10.1972), but I have very little Info about him. Anybody may help me with complete list of his awards and decorations and also his assignments and promotions?

Thanks.
Igor

Gentlemen,

Most sources have his first name (vorname) of Valentiner as Max. Where in any records does Christian August Max Ahlmann Valentiner came from? :?

The pic was taken in the 1930s, as he has the rank insignia of Kapitän zur See. The promotion was in 1931.
