Who was Emil Leeb?

Emil Leeb was a German general who served during World War II. His older brother was Field Marshal Wilhelm Ritter von Leeb; W. Ritter was a “von Leeb”, he was not “noble born” but W. Ritter’s title of “von” derived from the patent of knighthood carried by the Bavarian Military Order of Max Joseph, which had been conferred upon him. Hence, the younger Emil had no “von” in his name.
