Mates,

I just checked out the Verlustlisten 1. Weltkrieg and found the ranks for the medical personal hard to follow in the Old German?

Like these I tried to convert;

Ahrens Konrad Feld Stellb Feldlaz 213 (Hosp) Feldlazarett 213

Echr Stabmartz Dr Feldlaz 212 (Hosp) Feldlazarett 212

Elsaß Ob Apoth deR Feldlaz 212 (Hosp) Feldlazarett 212

Gawlina Sanit Pte Feldlaz 213 (Hosp) Feldlazarett 213 att 300Co

Lübke Wilhelm Uff Arzt deR Feldlaz 213 (Hosp) Feldlazarett 213

Ostermann Laz Fuip Feldlaz 212 (Hosp) Feldlazarett 212

Saphra Iwan O Arzt deR Feldlaz 213 (Hosp) Feldlazarett 213

But these ranks had me beat?

I could not find these ranks on the net so can you help?

Cheers

S.B
