17th Hussar Regiment -NCO (senior Farrier) and his sweetheart

I just noticed this, it appears he has the senior Farrier's badge on his left sleeve (double horseshoe)
 
According to Herr and Nguyen, senior Farriers could be promoted to a supernumerary VizeWachtmeister after 12 years of service. I'm guessing that is what this photo shows.
