Eduardo Posted October 5, 2006 Share Posted October 5, 2006 I have some other postcards with German officers and soldiers which are being translated now. They have been written and mailed. They have dates, names and some other details. While I get those back I am here presenting one that has no reference at all. Maybe you might be able to help. Thanks in advance. EduardoPS. Where can I post one of an Italian officer and one of what I believe to be Austrian soldier in combat? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chip Posted October 5, 2006 Share Posted October 5, 2006 Eduardo,The photo is too small to get any details of the uniform for a possible identification. A close-up of the rider from the chest up would be most helpful. Either that is a very large man or a very small horse! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eduardo Posted October 6, 2006 Author Share Posted October 6, 2006 Hello Chip. I have made the scan of big man. Let's see if there is anything to identify him. Thanks in advance.Eduardo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwmosher Posted October 6, 2006 Share Posted October 6, 2006 EduardoYou have a junior NCO (sergeant) which appears to be with the field artillery. Can you show a close-up of the cuff (should be Swedish) and the shoulder strap to comfirm this? RegardsDave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
