There is one H. Pohrt, a lawyer, who served in WW I as fighter pilot and in 1919 moved from Berlin to Rheinsberg. He knew Göring and other Nazis and succesfully saved his wife (Margot Wiener) and other Jewish women. After war he was living in East Germany, in the fifties moved to Niedersachsen and died there in 1958. Perhaps he is the right man as H. Pohrt, Stud. jur. is mentioned as a student of Chinese in 1902 in Mittheilungen des Seminars für Orientalische Sprachen, Berlin 6, 1903, p. V.
