Got some new photos, yesterday on a small postcards-trade-market. Thought I share them with You and post a question. First one is a very nice shot of a K?rrassier, 1910: More details: Another Chevauleger (this time no question, all is written on the photo) Now my question - who is this ? There is no info on the photo, not even a photographer mark: And some new postcards too: ........................

Thanks so far for the explanations. I didn't know about german military advisors for the turkish army. The photo came with a couple of other photos, all from the same family. I think You should see the rest too. This one shows Uncle Toni and Uncle Jogl, a few years before the war, they look a bit younger: Next one shows "Papa" again, the soldier sitting far left: Now another photo of Uncle Toni, he died after the war of cancer: And yet another photo of Uncle Toni: Now, there are several group photos, some I believe are made after the war, around 1919 ?? Most of these men are wearing Edelweiss on their caps, also note the MG-Gunners badge over the armband: I also noticed, that the upper cocades were removed. Papa is on that photo of a Machine-Gunners unit. I think that photo was made at Munich, the barracks in the back look very familiar to me And the last one, Machine-Gunners at a railway station. These could be Freikorps soldiers, they are wearing armbands without any inscription, but maybe with a badge, the photo is on "structured" paper which makes the details almost disappear: Kind regards Robert

Got this photo this morning on a fleamarket. I find it a bit strange. The soldier in the middle is wearing a Fez, the order of the turkish-star, ribbon for IC ?? and a german belt-buckle. And even more strange is, that the names on the back would tell us that he is german or austrian. 1 = Papa ( the daddy of somebody ) 2 = Onkel Jogl ( uncle Jogl - Jogl is a nick-name for Jakob ) 3 = Onkel Toni Onkel Toni is wearing a badge on his cap. Here are the pics: The photo was taken at Penzberg - Bavaria. As always - any comments are welcome. Kind regards Robert

I have got a very nice photoalbum of a member of the Panzer Aufkl?rungs-Abteilung 7. This unit belonged to the 7th Infantry Division ( a Munich division ) and took part in the whole Russian campaign. The album itself is made very simple. The photos are sticked into a school-book. But the photos are extraordinary. ...................

Let's see the photo first: I am not sure what he is. Reichswehr Navy ?? Civil Navy ?? He has no rank insignia. Wearing his IC 1st class. What also makes me wonder is the cuff-title. " ...LD-WITTE...." is all to read. Navy did not normally wear cuff-titles. Here are some details: He was a member of the Stahlhelmbund for sure. That excludes Imperial Navy. No dates, no location, nothing on the back. The details are very clear, a nice photo anyway. Any further information ?? Kind regards Robert

Thanks Rick, he could have been an officer in the medical service, but NOT a doctor. In this group of photos, about 60 photos, there are a lot of nurses to be seen. Maybe he was the administrative leader of a war-hospital. Thanks for all the answers so far. Turns out to be an interesting group, although the quality of the photos could be much better. In No.10 - the second photo, the men in the back look like mongolians, maybe POWs. Kind regards Robert

Finally two photos of this man in tyrolian outfit. Maybe he was an actor in a semi-professional theater ?? Played somebody like Andreas Hofer ?? Or was he a mayor of a town and this is his mayor outfit ?? 11.) It could be his signature, maybe helps to identify him, but I can not read it 100 %. Something like " SINOWA" ??? These photos were made by a photographer in Vienna. Not dated. As always - any infos are welcome. Kind regards Robert
