    He wears a marksman's' lanyard, long service schanlle and what i think is the 'for service" Wurtembrg. medal. A Feldwebel or Sergeant (?) and I think the rear says, In (fondest) remembrance of your old commander Feldwbl Guldmer (?). Probably given to a conscript one-year volunteer upon completion of his service.

    Pity we can't see the regt. # on his straps.

    Is this the same person ? ...

    ... I don't think so. (face, nose and the tips of the ears are different).

    On the shoulderboards (I think) there is a chiffre??? You know the city of the photographic studio?

    Maybe he was a teacher/instructor, on the shoulderboard is a small cord - that means: "Abkommandierung zur Schule".

    ... if there is a (yellow) "32" on the (red) shoulderboard maybe the

    2. Th?ringisches Infanterie-Regt. Nr.32 (Meiningen/Th?ringen) is possible ???

    @Rick: yes - you are right, it must be "G?ldner". The familyname "J?ldner" doesn't exist! :cheers:

    Here you can check german surname (and the region): http://christoph.stoepel.net/geogen/v3/

    ("surname" than click on: "Kartieren", in the new window you find some links, click on: "Relative Karte f?r g?ldner".)

    The most "G?ldner's" are from S?mmerda in Th?ringen.
