Re: Full German Officers Name in Ottoman Army..
Tosun,
Do you have any details on this German and k.u.k. officer? Shown as:
Georg Prinz von Bayern,
(1880-1943) member of the Bavarian Royal House of Wittelsbach from k.u.k. (Mährisches) Dragonerregiment "Kaiser" Nr. 11 [11th "Moravia" Austro-Hungarian Dragoons k.u.k.] 1914-15 to Ottoman Army dates?
The closest I can find was he was on staff to von Falkenhayn with the Yildirim Army. Dates for his Ottoman service I am unsure of?
Do you have any thing on him?

Georg Prinz von Bayern never heard about him in Turkish Army. He was brother in law of Franz Joszef and uncle of Karl.

Re: Full German Officers Name in Ottoman Army..
Tosun,
Yes I found his name on the list by Wikipedia under WWI;
During World War I, Georg fought both on the Western Front (including the First Battle of Arras and the First Battle of Ypres) and on the Eastern Front. He started the war as commander of the Bavarian mechanized troops and eventually served under General Erich von Falkenhayn in Palestine. He was awarded both the I and II Class of the Iron Cross and on December 14, 1917 reached the rank of Colonel (German: Oberst).
It also mentions:
Georg entered the Bavarian army as a Leutnant (English: Second Lieutenant) a day before his 17th birthday on April 1, 1897; he was assigned to Infanterie-Leib-Regiment. On February 8, 1903, he was promoted to the rank of Oberleutnant (English: First Lieutenant ) and then reassigned to the 1. Kgl. Bayer. schweres Reiter-Regiment "Prinz Karl von Bayern" [1st Royal Bavarian Heavy Cavalry “Prince Charles of Bavaria”]. Two years later, on October 27, 1905 he was promoted to Rittmeister and on October 26, 1906 to Major. From August 17, 1908, he was also a Rittmeister and later Major in the k.u.k. (Mährisches) Dragonerregiment "Kaiser" Nr. 11 [11th "Moravia" Austro-Hungarian Dragoons].[3] While in the army, he became a champion boxer.

Re: Full German Officers Name in Ottoman Army..
Mates,
Do you have any details on these German officers and what units they commanded?
Hechtern Von Maj CO 701st Arty Bn
Staubwasser Maj 701st Bn
Kemper Lt 701st MT Co
Dungern Von Capt Yildirim ordusu 701. Piyade birlik komutani
Genee Capt 701 Piyade tabur komutani sonra sahra inzibat dairesi baskani
Mohr Lt Yildirim ordusu 701. Piyade birlik komutani
The first three show known German sub units, while the last three are in Turkish and I am unsure what units they mean?
Any ideas

Re: Full German Officers Name in Ottoman Army..
Steve,
Oskar Staubwasser was a Bavarian infantry officer. At mobilisation he was a company commander in the 10. Infanterie-Regiment. According to his military service summary, he was the battalion commander of the I Mixed battalion of the Asien-Korps followed by service on the staff of the IV Ottoman Army from 25 January 1918 to 1 April 1918 when he assumed command of the Ottoman "Ajas" Detachment.
I think Hechtern should read Hans Rechtern, in 1914 an Hauptmann in the 2. Unter-Elsässisches Feldartillerie-Regiment Nr. 67.
Rittmeister d.R. a.D. Hermann Freiherr von Dungern
Regards
Glenn
