Re: The Kiekemal Tale: The Aftermath

Omggggg, that is really something.

Our author herself started to go to school in the year 1932, as a quick glance at the rest of the book tells me, meaning she must have been 6 years then, which is presumably where the deep belief in soldierness as making you incorruptble comes from.

Ahhhh, yes, that'll do it.

“Der König - Lebensdokumente. Wilhelm Langewische-Brandt, München, Leipzig”, no date of publication given

My best guess, based on Google books snippet view, is 1910. So yeah.

Friedrich II - Jugendjahre, Siegried SCwanz, Edition Rieger, Karwe

This one appears to be 1998, again based on snippet view.

Of course, Pfeiffer was a soldier, too, and even took an active distinguishing-himself part in the battle of Mollwitz</cite. Funnily, I was reading half a dozen biographical dictionaries last night, and nearly every one had "Distinguished himself at the battle of Mollwitz in 1741" near the very beginning of the entry, so I had that pretty well drummed into my head!
