Heeeeee Rik,....long time ago!Nice helmet Ed, congrats well done![]()
Many thanks Philippe !Hi,
I see Gr.(enadier) Köhnke 1 Komp.
There are two guys with this name in the Verlustlisten, but both in another Kompanie:
1) Wilhelm in the 6K:
2) Fritz, in the 5K:
Verlustlisten 1. Weltkrieg, page 28646: Köhnke Fritz (Stettin)
des.genealogy.net
But Fritz is mentioned very late, 1918, so he could not be that guy...
Possibly a pre-war guy who wrote his name on the neckguard during his 2 years active duty. He could have been mobilized August 1914 in another company or even in another unit.
