Chris Boonzaier Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 This is a pic of a salty bunch of Leiber of the 6th Company of the Leib Regiment. It was sent home by a soldier on the 10th of June 1916... he was killed at Verdun on the 26th of June 1916. Interestingly, I am assuming he is in the pic, and all are wearing the edelweiss... he was however not in the Tirol... he joined the regiment for the Serbian campaign....

IrishGunner Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 I wonder what is the rounded item sticking out from the tunic of the center fellow with the EK ribbon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought maybe some glasses or a watch, but once again the bclosed button is wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
