Hello Robert! As far as I know, all Rhin district badges were made in blue/red colours, weren´t they?

Hello Andy! Unfortunately I don´t know that book. Could you please show us one single page, so I know, how it is structured. Just for the case, I´ll buy it... Thanks a lot!

Hello! It looks like austrian, but I´m not s specialist. But I´d like to play teacher... A steel-helmet is called "Stahlhelm", not Stalheim.

Hello! Great article! Fine collection!

Since 1938 it was german..

Hello! W.F.V.: Wiener Fußball-Verband (Vienna Football-Assiciation) https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wiener_Fußball-Verband N.OE.Liga: Nieder-Österreichische Liga (Lower-austrian league)

Hello! I don´t have a rank list of bavarian signal troops but I also read Schönberger

The field cap was the second pattern from 30.10.1935. The first pattern stil had the two buttons.

Ah. Ok. So we have a aviation Tunis from an officer who served with the engeneer before. A lot of them wore there old tunics Since 1915 all enegneer officers had Garde-Litzen. So he could serve with a engeneer of the line bataillon too.

Hello! Black/red collars = Garde-Pioniere What about the shoulder boards?

Hello! Can anyone tell me, which tactical sign is painted on the bike, please? By the way: There ain´t any numnbers of cyphers upon the shoulder straps. When were they worn blank?

The only cheap article here is beer...

Great Infos! Thanks a lot! Good Job, mate!

Hello! They seem to visit the cavalry school in Saumur: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cavalry_School Today you can visit the Tank Museum in Saumur. Only 436mls from London... http://www.museedesblindes.fr/en/

Hello! That would be more expensive than new binoculars...

Thanks a lot Tony! But I will wait a while, maybe I' ll find some in Kassel at the Military bourse.

It looks better, but it' s not a Hensoldt. I don' t know if others fit

Hello! Oh no, that´s a different one. There ain´t no eyepieces I need

Hello Peter! Yes, I´ve about that the piecec are rare. I asked different optc shops, but the prices they wanted to charge were so ***** high, that I could buy a complete one... Like I said, I don´t want an 100% original one, because I don´t collect binoculars, I just need it, when we visit some battlefields.

The offer had been deleted yesterday...

Hello! Maybe some relatives mixed something? But the question is the ring. With that price it would be better, you´d have a look at it...

Hi Chris! Did you check the names? Richard Schwarz (7th comp.) recieved the ring April 4, 1918 with number 512. The seller is open for discussions, as he wrote... Generalleutnant v. Rösch was commander of bav. 10th.Inf.Div. (14.3.15-25.4.16) Generalmajor Ritter v. Rauchenberger (commander bav. 1.Inf.Brig,. 22.9.14-15.4.15. The brigade changed its name into 20th Inf.Brig. , he was commander from 9.3.15-3.8.15) The 20th Inf.brig. belonged to the 10.Inf.Div. So this photo was taken between march/april 1915 and august 1915) In this time the ILR belonged to 1st. bav. Inf.Brig. (until 20.5.15 1st. bav. Inf.Div., then Alpenkorps) Richard was injured in 1916 (7./LIR): http://des.genealogy.net/search/show/3729560 So maybe he served in an unit of the 10th. bav.Inf.Div. in 1915, then came to LIR OR the ring has nothing in common with the photo... Look at the photo "Ausmarsch Juni 1915". I can´t recognize Gardelitzen, so in that time he wouldn´t have served with LIR!
