This is a Sanke card of Otto Höhne (1895-1969). Höhne served in Jasta 2 under Oswald Boelcke and also in Jastas 1 and 59. He scored a total of six victories as a pilot. In WW II he rose to the rank of Generalmajor and was awarded the Knights Cross of the Iron Cross. In this photo he is shown seated. He is wearing his 1914 Iron Cross 1st Class and his Prussian Pilot Badge. I once had the pleasure of meeting Höhne’s Son and gave him a similar postcard to what we offer today. The postcard was not mailed.
