iharos Posted July 3, 2008 Posted July 3, 2008 Can any one identify the uniform of this gentleman?It is Hungarian and I think it may be pre WWI. There is braiding on his sleeves and the upper part of his trousers.He is wearing a bayonet, and appears to be of tizades rank (corporal?)
Elmar Lang Posted July 3, 2008 Posted July 3, 2008 It should be a NCO of the Royal Hungarian Honv?d.Best wishes,Enzo
