    OL and PLM recipient ?

    Dear "enamel" boyz
    A silly question from a "zinky" colleague :
    Have a look on the phot o below which is currently on the Weitze's website.
    This is a Eichenlaubträger and his rank is seemingly General d. Flieger (or its equivalent). I don't believe this can be an oberst due to the white lapels on his tunic.
    There is also another award (supposedly a WWI) and I would believe this is a PLM. But I must be wrong since I can't achieve to find his name.
    Can anybody help me in telling what is this award.
    For your interest, here are the 11 officers in the short list (i.e. those matching with the following criteria : LW member who was awarded the OL with a rank under or equivalent with Gen. d. Flieger and who ended the war with a rank equivalent or superior to Gen. d. Flieger)

    CONRATH PAUL
    FIEBIG MARTIN
    HEIDRICH RICHARD
    MEINDL EUGEN
    PFLUGBEIL KURT
    PICKERT WOLFGANG
    RAMCKE HERMANN-BERNHARD
    REIMANN RICHARD
    RICHTHOFEN (Frhr. v.) WOLFRAM
    SEIDEMANN HANS
    STUDENT KURT


    Thanks in advance

    Hey Denis!

    That looks like it was Conrath.


    ...


    MAIS!!!!

    1) He did not (nor did any of those others) HAVE a PLM.

    2) White lapels were worn only on overcoats and the Fat Hermann double breasted tunics NOT the service tunic

    3) His boards have the five side bumps of an Oberst.



    Conclusion final:


    Someone VERY naughty has been screwing around making a fantasy photo!!!
