    Army Hauptmann Karl Beermann?

    Hi -

    I recently purchased a document grouping to Army Hauptmann Karl Beermann.

    He could have progressed to a higher rank but that is the highest rank listed on the documents.

    The documents that I have are for the following awards:

    1. Hauptmann in 83rd Infantry Division - Wound Badge in Silver - dated January 14, 1943

    2. Hauptmann (can't read the unit ink stamp) - Eastern Front Medal - dated September 1, 1942

    3. Oberleutnant (can't read this one either) - Iron Cross Second Class - August 16, 1941

    4. Oberleutnant in 1st Company 503 Infantry Regiment - Wound Badge in Black - September 1941

    5. Leutnant in 7th Company 16 Infantry Regiment - Medal for Okt. 1, 1938 - dated January 26, 1940

    6. Feldwebel - 12 Year Wehrmacht Service Award - dated October 2, 1936

    7. Oberleutnant - 1st Company 503 Infantry Regiment - Infantry Assault Badge - dated September 1, 1941

    Does anyone have more info on this Army Officer?

    Since the last document is dated 1943, could he have been promted further.

    Thank you in advance,

    Vincent

    Do any of the docs refer to him being a reserve officer, ie. with a d.R after the rank or similar? There's only 1 Beermann in the '44 Heer rank lists (which lists regular officers of the rank of major and above) and it can't be him as he was an artillery officer. No Karl Beermann listed as being awarded any of the higher decorations either
    Collecting German award documents, other paperwork and photos relating to Norway and Finland.

      Hi Simon-

      Thank you for your help.

      None of the documents state that he was a reserve officer.

      The EK 2 is marked "Im Feld" as a field award, if I am correct.

      The Okt. 1 and Infantry Assault docs are also marked "Im Felde"

      Best,

      Vincent
