Hi gents

some better images at last...    (forgot at the time)

both images are postcard size and show the same group of 26 individuals but they are lined up differently.

The first has 21 signatures in pencil on the back.....

Hi Tony,

row standing: 3rd from left airforce, 11th and last police

row seated: 8th from left police.

The three in white could possibly be doctors, as they are given room in the middle, reserved usually for the most important people in the group.

Hello , Tony ,the Beamte is a  official , who served into the Armed Forces ,in some capacity ,and entitled to the use of Officer or senior NCO . the theme is complex , due the numerous classes of Beamten that existed into the German Armed forces .

The use of officer or senior NCO uniform  . the beamten possesed the consideration of officer or NCO but they had not military authority .
