Konteradmiral Otto Kähler

[HeerOskarHistorian]

Hello all!

I am making a huge biography on Konteradmiral Otto Kähler, I plan for a few hundred pages.

I am looking to see if anyone has the name of his parents and a copy of his birth certificate.
Additionally, I am looking for any pictures of him during the Battle of Brest. I have a few photographs, any photographs work — especially while he was in command of the Hilfskreuzer "Thor", any era photographs work.

I have made a previous thread on this subject before but it has been old and I do apologize if this is the wrong topic area.

Additionally, I am looking to see if anyone has his uniform or medals, a number one question I've had.

Any information would help, I would appreciate it heavily and you will be credited accordingly how you wish! 

Best Regards from the United States!, Thanks!

Fascinating research project! Otto Kähler's career, especially his command of the auxiliary cruiser Thor, makes him a compelling historical figure. I hope someone in the community can help with details about his family, birth records, photographs from the Brest period, or information on his uniform and decorations

Apologies for my delay in response, I am back.

Thank you so much! It is one of my biggest projects yet.

Both available on Ancestry as well as a photo of his grave.

I was able to find it, a very great member of this forum sent me a photo of the birth certificate and I found a picture of his gravesite on findagrave.com, this is one of the best forums I have been on.
