Hi !

I'm looking for pictures of general Winterfeld. He was part of the German officials for surrender on November 11, 1918.

Hi! It appears to be a Commander's Cross (1st or 2nd Class?) with Swords of the Württemberg Friedrich Order. I can't make out the medallion in this photo, but if it’s the Friedrich Order, it should be a crowned letter “F” within a blue riband bearing the inscription “Gott und Mein Recht.”

Regards,
Shawn

Hi !

Many thanks for the pictures :D

Winterfeld appears to have been the German military attache in Paris before the Great war. Any picture of him at this time ?
