10 place KM Ribbon Bar

[erichcraciun]

Hello and Merry Christmas,

Rick has helped me in the past with this ribbon bar, however it might be of interest to some of you again.

This ribbon bar spans from China (1905) to the Second World War.

Rick, who was this officer again?

Erich

Closest match seems to be Max LUTTER (born 28 June 1872, alive 1939), in navy 9.4.92-22.11.19, Kapitän zur See (28.4.18 A) aD--

who had these Imperial BUT I do not find him on the (incomplete) Bavarian Military Merit Order rolls (GOLD swords on that, or silver?).

I don't know if he served again in WW2 (not impossible for a zV retiree), but he did not make Admiral rank.

He commanded SMS "Augsburg" August 1917 to March 1918 which MIGHT have gotten him a courtesy gong of the Bavarian MMO3X.

In 1939 he was living with his wife in Flendburg, and was the Gau Nordmark Business Manager for the Volksbiund Deutsche Kriegsgráber-Fürsorge.

Yes, they are gold swords. Thank you so much for the information. That is great!

Must be him then on all the other matching points. Wouldn't it be nice to figure out what he was doing, at about 70, to earn a KVK2X?

If you have a brithdate I could write to Bundesarchiv - Kornelimunster.
