Hello,
Sorry, I forgot about that, as far as I know SS-Standartenführer Hans Collani was related. I do not think they were brothers, cousins most probably.

I agree, they are probably cousins, as born in two different cities, but of similar age; Hans Collani was born in 1908 in Stettin. Hopefully, I will now be able to make the link with the information you have provided. More on other Collani recipients of the Prussian Pour le Merite Order later. Thank you.
