Noor Posted September 18, 2010 Share Posted September 18, 2010 Hi, I got this photo of Danish soldier and would like to find out more about that. Can someone please advise his rank, period of this uniform was in use (is it pre WW1?), etc. Very interesting gun - can it be for a cavalry? Thanks, Timo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Great Dane Posted September 18, 2010 Share Posted September 18, 2010 Although I'm danish, I can't help you much but the gun might just have been used for decoration (not unusual on this type of photos). Judging from the style of the photo, I would say it's pre-WWI - probably around 1900... Someone more into uniforms could maybe say more...? /Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mopsi Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 The gun is a cavalry carbine of 1870-vintage. Private. Most probably 5th Dragoon Regt in Randers, Jutland (where the photo was made). Certainly before 1900. Hi, I got this photo of Danish soldier and would like to find out more about that.
