Could be this Officer Siegfried von Waldenburg?

[Angel Farré]

It comes in a large group with Wehrpass, citations, documents and maps and not enough time to look for all so short cut, ask in the forum meanwhile I am deciphering the Wehrpass and looking at the maps, some has written the position of several Batteries of the 73 and other units from the 1 P.D. and other divisions.

Waldenburg

Hi Angel-Ref more info I have by Oct 1941 Cmdr of 1/73 Art Regt Major Dr.rer.pol.
Wilhelm Born later Oberst 1/73 Pz Art Regt when awarded Dkig 23/6/42.
It would be nice if the Wehrpass gives a date of next position.
It could be he was taken ill or something similar therefore dying just after WW2.

Harmel, thanks, but Wehrpass is from a Leutnant, in his photo album I find some officers pictured and one in von Waldenburg.

I am researching it and I try to put it here during the weekend.

Thanks for all help.

From the same album taken between December 1.939 and June 22nd, 1.941

First Hautmann Kersten, appears he was a Batterie commander.

Second our protagonist brother, Oberleutnant Hans Joachim Koke

Third Oberleutnant Duic or Duié (this soldier could have been seriously wounded in August 12th, 1.941 during an air attack suffering the amputation of both legs below the knee, stated in a transcription of a letter dated August 28th, but only identified as D, but someone wrote Duic on top)

Fourth Oberleutnant Ferber during Hans Joachim Koke wedding in the Spring of 1.940.

The original owner served with:

Oberst Eichstedt, KIA in North Afrika
Leutnant Jelden

Final photo is our man, Jurgen Koke, he was finally promoted to Leutnant On April 20th, 1.945 so this photo was taken in the last days of the war or in the firsts or postwar. Looks like the tunic eagle is just presented, shadow under its right wing, and the shoulder boards buttons are either missing or not buttoned.

Any info welcomed

My friend and fellow member of this forum barkhorn1 thinks that the Oberst is Max Eichstädt
