Cape detail.

A recent addition is this small Bulgarian photo album. It would appear to me to start pre World War 2 and covers the Airforce and Army.
A nice image to start with is this Airforce Officer wearing what appears to be a dress cape.

A new addition to my collection, I believe it says 'von Klufer' but I cannot verify this or, indeed find much infomation regarding this Officer.

Dave, thanks for all that information, I initially thought that the man lower right with the cap was a member of the DAF, just goes to show you need to check these photos and then check again. I have tried high resoulution scans of both his cap badge and the lapel badge without much luck I'm afraid. (need one of Ricks epsons!)
Rick, thanks for the translation. :cheers:

Wheeler finishes his diary with this watercolour painting of ships. As I said at the start, no major battles or actions but plenty of day to day information detailing life in the Royal Navy.
Hope you Gentlemen enjoyed this and again, any help with that medal identification would be appreciated.

Any chance of that close up of the bass drum in photo 3 please Ivan :cheers:

Leigh, do you think no 3 could be a Military School of Music, various cap badges being worn along with the marking on the drum?

Number 1 is definately Machine Gun Corp, Number 2 could be The Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders, but with the angle that the photo has been taken its difficult to be exact and as for number 3, I think a close up of the bass drum would be the best starting point for a positive identification.

Another Airforce Officer in evening/mess dress? The insignia appear to be of bullion type embroidery.
