This is just a guess, but judging by the shape of the visor caps and gymnasterka-like uniforms I´d say these guys are from the communist period army.
I can´t see well enough if the cap eagles have the crown or not.Comment

A few from them has a badge "POS-Państwowa Odznaka Sportowa
" (National Sports Badge) used before the year 1939.

You have to admit, that was not a very helpful answer. Couldn't you have given at least a bit of explanation?Originally posted by besslein View Postno problem,i will never again put any comment in your thredComment

They certainly look more Russian than Polish uniforms and hats ... even though some are sporting the POS badge.
Possibly Poles in the Russian/Soviet army ... but not Poles under Polish control .. maybe Lithuanians ?

Like Gromow said, they`re KOP soldiers. The uniforms are acually Polish wz.24 field uniforms which were slip ons.Comment

So the answer to the original question would be that these are Polish POWs in Germany during WWII, the expressin on their faces tell a lot.

Maybe they're Germans dressed up as Poles...like Brandenburgers...which explains the German postcard...
They do look worried though....POW's would be a better explanation! but would they have access to making such postcards I wonder?Comment
