    Hi Tony,

    as always, very welcome. This is an interesting lot. It´s late, so I won´t be taking out my books, but I dare say that

    1) Gardegrenadierregiment

    2) seems to have been comandeered to a school (Maybe NCO school) see light striped thread on shoulder flap

    3)Einjährigfreiwillige of an Infanterie Regiment with a regiment that has a monogram on its flaps

    4) seem to me like Kadetten

    5) Firemen, first row muscians.

    The photo caption with the waggon, posted Posted August 19, 2018 (edited)

    reads baggage waggon of the Sanitäts-Kompanie (medic-coy.)

    Giving me that extra angle, like you did so many times before.  I was looking back at this post, I got so much from you and Bayern, I wanted to click like on everything 👍


    Poor guy is probably sweating under the Officers gaze.
    Looks like a Red Cross on the tarp/cover.

    Hi tony,

    you are very welcome! Thank you for the kind words and the clicks. Unfortunately I can´t visit this forum as often as I used to.

    By the way: it seems to be Sanitätskompanie 31 and the officers in front might be named Leutnant Zeiger and Oberleutnant Köstlin, but I am not 100% sure.

    Best,

    GreyC
