Biography
Prince of Prussia, as the only son of Prince August Wilhelm of Prussia and his wife Princess Alexandra Victoria of Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Glücksburg.
His parents divorced in 1920 and his mother remarried less than two years later; custody of the young prince was awarded to Alexander's father.
As of November 1939, Prince Alexander was a first lieutenant in the Air Force Signal Corps, stationed in Wiesbaden.
Like his father, who became a prominent supporter of the Nazi party, Alexander also became an early supporter.
In 1933 Alexander quit the SA and became a private in the German regular army.
Unlike many German princes who became the targets of Hitler's mistrust and were removed from their commands in the military, Alexander was the only Hohenzollern allowed to remain at his post.
On 19 December 1938 in the Dresden garrison church, Alexander non-dynastically married Armgard Weygand. They had one son.
Prince Alexander Ferdinand died on 12 June 1985 at Wiesbaden.
