filfoster Posted 2 hours ago Share Posted 2 hours ago Does anyone know what uniform v. Mackensen is wearing in this photo? In 98% of photos of him, he's wearing his 'Death's Head' Hussars uniform. In the other 2%, he's wearing his adjutant's uniform. The white underlay to the shoulder cords hints that it's an honorary regimental 'chef' or ala suite appointment. THIS IS THE ONLY PHOTO OF HIM WEARING THIS UNIFORM THAT I'VE EVER FOUND. It appears in the book 'The World War One Sourcebook'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
