Freiherr Friedrich von Dincklage-Campe (born July 25, 1839 on Gut Campe near Osnabrück , Kingdom of Hanover ; died February 21, 1918 in Berlin ) was a Prussian professional soldier and military writer. He also wrote under the pseudonym Hans Nagel von Brawe .

Life

Friedrich came from the Campe line of the Westphalian nobility Dincklage . He was the son of the landowner Hermann Freiherr von Dincklage-Campe (1796–1886) and his wife Julie, née von Stoltzenberg (1803–1895). His sisters Emmy (1825-1891) and Clara (1829-1919) became writers.

Dincklage received lessons from private tutors and first attended the Progymnasium in Weener and from 1851 the Gymnasium in Bückeburg . At the age of sixteen he joined the Hanover Cadet Corps in 1855 . In 1859 he was promoted to lieutenant and in 1865 to first lieutenant . In 1864 he took part in the German-Danish War and in 1866 in the war against Prussia in the Battle of Langensalza .

After the annexation of Hanover in 1866, he joined the Prussian Army in Osnabrück and became captain and squadron chief . In 1870/71 he took part in the war against France and received the Iron Cross 2nd class. Dincklage-Campe was 1872 Ehrenritter and 1890 law Knights of St John . On August 13, 1889, he was transferred to Glogau as commander of the 9th Cavalry Brigade , and in this position in 1891 he was promoted to major general. After being given the character of lieutenant general, Dincklage was put up for disposition on July 20, 1892 in approval of his resignation request with a pension .

After his farewell, he lived in Osnabrück, on his Campe estate and in winter in Halensee near Berlin.

The son Hans-Ulrich (1869–1939) left his marriage to Frieda von Mengersen . During the First World War he was a Prussian lieutenant colonel and commander of the Altmark Field Artillery Regiment No. 40 .

In retirement, Dincklage-Campe wrote fiction and popular literature about the military industry and the German wars in the 19th century. The richly illustrated volume Deutsche Reiter in Südwest , published by him, propagated colonialism in the German Empire and was widely distributed.
