    Looking for info on a WWI vet

    Hi guys,

    I recently acquired a Flak tunic to Oberst Wilhelm Fichter. He was a recipient of the EKI spange and therefore obviously a WWI vet.

    Here is my thread with the tunic as well as a photo I found of him: http://dev.wehrmacht-awards.com/foru...d.php?t=637545

    FICHTER, Wilhelm.
    09.39 Maj., Kdr. III.(Scheinw.)/Flak-Rgt. 12.
    23.02.40 Obstlt., appt Kdr. Flak-Rgt. 118 (to 01.09.40).
    01.09.40 appt Kdr. Flakscheinwerfer-Rgt. 1 (to 10.03.43).
    01.03.41 promo to Oberst.
    10.03.43 Oberst, appt Kdr. Kdr. Flakbrigade IV.
    10.10.43 Oberst, appt Kdr. 23. Flak-Div. (to 20.08.44).
    10.11.44 Oberst, appt Kdt. Flakschiessplatz Dramburg (to 26.04.45).

    I am wondering if anybody here can help me find any additional information about him such as his WWI service details.

    Thank you in advance,

    Adam

        Adam,

        It's not much, but here is Fichter's entry in the 1926 Honour Ranklist. It shows that he retired from service, (I assume in 1918) with the rank of Oberleutnant a.D.

        This also shows that he was a Leutnant in Inf. Reg. Bremen, Nr. 75.

        Best regards
        Pierce

          Thank you very much Pierce! It's quite a lot more than I had before you posted.

            Quick bump to see if anybody might know the location of his documents (which I believe to be in collector hands based on some other items I've found of his).
