'This gallant soldier is the chief of the staff of General Willisen, Commander-in-Chief of the Schleswig-Holstein army...at the commencement of the present year he was named Colonel and Chief of the staff. He is a daring and enterprising officer, and is much beloved by his troops. In private conversation, he is one of the most modest and unassuming of men. He conducted the whole of the late unsuccessful operations against Friedrichstadt, in which the army displayed so much useless gallantry'. From "Illustrated London News", 1850.
