Interesting , the man of the left wears Cavalry , Artillery boots , perhaps he belongs to the Foot Artillery .

Vielen Danke , Simply I forgot the existence of the Max II order, or I dont linked it with Junger.who must have received the Order after 1980

Gerhard Tappen ,born 1866 died 1953 ,as Colonel was the Chief of Operations of the German High Command at the outbreak of the war first under von Moltke, then under Falkenhayn. he rose to Generalmajor in 1916 and served in the Mackensen Group .later he commanded the 5th Ersatz Division an since September 1917 the 15th Infantry Division.in 1939 he received the character of a General der Artillerie

Very Interesting, thanks for share

Hello, the German writer Ludwig Renn , into his novel : Post War , autobiographical ,describes well the situation in Saxony after the WW1 and the profusion of armed forces ,either Zeitfreiwillige, Freikorps, Police or simply not disbanded Old Army units

Hello, What decoration is that Junger carries under the PLM ?

Hello , my only contribution is regarding his uniform, the uniform of a General of the Croatian Regular Army, in which ranks Begic was first Major General and then Lieutenant General and full General , Infantry. Begic was more politically compromised than Stanzer or Markuij . the number 1 is the First Class Cross with star of the Order of the Crown of King Zvonimir. Begic was awarded with it. Stanzer too.

Hello tony , Merry Christmas for you and all the believers in the Forum

Hello , First, the epaulettes the most probably are US Army . dress epaulettes of a colonel . the eagle is in silver and looks to her right.from when ? Before the Civil war perhaps. Second ,the metallic eagle iis very like of that used during the second French Empire. Please, enter to search with the following: Aigle de giberne du second Empire.www.passionmilitaria com .ther you will find the pic of the eagle

Thanks again . very interesting! I observe that the ammo in use is the round pointed munition for the Gew 88 . Until I discovered the MG 99 and MG 01 I tended to believe that the German Army used Gatling or Nordenfeldt MGs

Hello ,Probably they were operating near Austrians .

Thanks for the pic!
