I took down a pickelhaube I had not looked at in quite a while and found a bunch of previously un noticed names inside. All are from someone named W. von Ebner. It is a Bavarian Officer's helmet that was modified to an M15 top during the war. My question to any medal person is who is he? Can you shed any light on him? I'm not intending to sell it ... just for my information. There is a mark which might mean the 22nd Bavaian Infantry Regiment????? Thanks so much in advance.

Hi Joe,
the only "W" I can find serving in 1905 is one Hauptmann Wolfram Freiherr Ebner von Eschenbach who was an artillery officer. Born in 1871 he was in the 3. Feld-Artillerie-Regiment Prinz Leopold.
Sekonde-Lieutenant: 20.05.92
Oberleutnant: 24.10.00
Hauptmann: 13.12.04
By 1914 he was "at disposal" status and serving as a librarian at the Bavarian Army Library and probably remained there throughout the war.
Regards
Glenn
