de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Otto_von_der_Linde "Otto von der Linde (* 13. Januar 1892 in Regenwalde, Hinterpommern; † 23. Mai 1984 in Wienhausen bei Celle) war ein deutscher Offizier im Ersten Weltkrieg und Oberst der deutschen Wehrmacht im Zweiten Weltkrieg. Er war außerdem Träger des Pour le Mérite." He was the first junior German officer to receive the highest military honor, Pour le Merite, for his capture with a small party of Fort Malonne at Namur, Belgium in August, 1914. He convinced the Belgian commander that resistance was futile, and was handed the fort. forum.axishistory.com/viewtopic.php?t=86015. See also: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fort_de_Malonne#First_World_War
