Friedrich Georg Karl Ludloff (born July 5, 1875 on the Helba domain near Meiningen; † November 7, 1924 ) was a German expedition member and major .

Life

Fritz Ludloff was the eldest son of Rudolf Friedrich Ludloff .

From approx. 1901 to 1910 the lieutenant and later first lieutenant Fritz Ludloff belonged to the infantry regiment Margrave Karl (7th Brandenburg) No. 60 .

In 1912/1913 Fritz Ludloff, then a captain , took part in Ernst Herzfeld's Samarra expedition as a draftsman on leave from his duties in the General Staff . Herzfeld wanted to obtain "photographic kites" from Ludloff from the General Staff to supplement Ludloff's drawings with aerial photographs. It could not be determined whether this was possible. The three original Ludloffs measuring table recordings of the ruins of Samarra disappeared in the chaos of war in Berlin in 1945.

Even Friedrich Sarre took the total subscription of the urban area of Samarra Ludloff. Following the Samarra expedition, Ludloff supported Max von Oppenheim as a draftsman in Tell Halaf .

From 1914 he was a member of the General Staff of the II Army Corps and was then on the General Staff of the Alpine Corps . In this position Ludloff was on Ludwig von Tutschek's staff in 1915 .

As a major , Ludloff took part in the military operation "Jildirim" ( Army Group F (Falcon)) in Palestine in 1917/18 to support the Turkish army . He served under the Commander-in-Chief General of the Infantry Erich von Falkenhayn as Chief Quartermaster . In the book by Otto Liman von Sanders , a military instruction to Ludloff from August 1, 1918 as part of Operation “Jildirim” is mentioned.

In 1924 Fritz Ludloff died of a severe heart condition, which was due to malaria while participating in the expedition.
