In April 1856 he passed the examination to become a government trainee "with distinction" and then moved to the Münster and Potsdam governments. To do his military service, he volunteered for one year with the infantry regiment “Prince Friedrich of the Netherlands” (2nd Westphalian) No. 15 and then became a company commander in the 13th Landwehr Regiment.
