    Gentlemen,

    I have this nice Tellgmann photo in my collection. It shows us all three Sons of King Frederic August III. in their Leibgrenadier-Uniforms.

    Crown Prince Georg (1rst), Ernst Heinrich (3rd) and Friedrich Christian (4th.) On the backside there´s a handwritten inscription which dates it from 1904. But I think it was taken between 1906-1909/10.

    But I worry who are the other 3 guys.

    The 2nd ist most likely Georg Baron O´Byrn, military governor of the princes, in the uniform of GR 101.

    The Ulanen-guy could be Rittmeister Georg von Römer, Ulanen-Rgt. 17, on duty-command to the king´s sons from 1906-1909.

    Is he wearing a Red Eagle Order 4?

    But absolutely no gleam about the third guy. Looks like he´s wearing an EK2 1870. My first thought was Kriegsministerium but with an 1870 EK would tend to an General.

    Gruß Stefan
