    Hi JV, the image of Feldwebel-Sergeant Schmidt appears to be scratch free, so presumably another copy. There is one relatively small image of a 2. Zug officer in Gala uniform. Additionally, there are colour photos of an original officers' Galarock and hat. Regards Glenn

    "Die Adjutanten" Verlag Militaria

    I pre-ordered the German language edition in early June but have not received any indication that my copy is on the way to the UK yet. Fingers crossed! It would be most gratifying to see if Messrs Herr and Nguyen have managed to find a photograph of GR 89 personnel wearing a bearskin cap...

    Leib-Garde Husaren Trumpeter Corps

    If I am not mistaken, the photograph is dated 1903. The Kettle drummer would be a gentleman by the name of Johannes Arara. Regards Glenn

    Prussian Beamte

    yes...I am a great fan of Herr Pietsch but in this instance he got it wrong. The situation is explicitly described in both the 1902 and 1908 editions of the "Zusammenstellung der Uniformen und Abzeichen der Beamten des Königlich Preußischen Heeres". The attachment above is from the 1908 edition...

    Prussian Beamte

    I would respectfully disagree with that assertion. All veterinary officials wore a infantry pattern helmet with gold fittings and a round spike base. Regards Glenn

    German Generals with the Kaiser

    I think most certainly. The named Bavarians are clearer in this crop of a larger image taken at Kelheim. We can see at top left Gen.d.Inf. Ritter von Haag preceded by Gen.d.Inf. Graf von Bothmer. Kabinetts-Chef Ritter von Dandl is to Graf von Bothmer‘s left and Graf zu Castell-Castell is to his...

    Telegraph flag 1929

    Steve, given that the photograph was taken in Stuttgart, it is presumably the Reichsheer “Stahlhelmwappen” in the Württemberg colours black over red. The eagle was not introduced until 1934. Regards Glenn
