Andreas - Interesting funeral photos you have posted. From my point of view, the funeral was for a high ranking military person. Not sure if the funeral was for a general officier, but it was of someone who was important at the time of his death.

Note - There is a visor cap on top of the casket in post 241.

Here is a thread that would go with your photos...

I noted,this Thread had lots of views,so here is my next contribution.

Rare seen Photos of NVA Funeral ..the Photos are from the early days,you can see the tri-colored Shield on the Helmets.
The Photographer Stamp says "Seebeck"

Is there any Informations about such Funerals? Could it be a General or high Political Member?

Any comments are very welcome

Regards
Andreas

I did get this Photo together with many other Photos from a old KVP/DVP/NVA Vet. He served in the military from 1949!! until 1989 .From 1987 onwards he was a Civil Worker in the NVA.

Andreas,

Thanks for bringing this thread back to life. I spent some enjoyable time reviewing all of the pages/pictures. I'd like to get together sometime after I get settled into Budapest this summer and look at your photo collection first hand. I have to visit NICO in his shop, hopefully sometime before the end of the year, so perhaps we could do it then.

Regards,

Gordon
