Ration bread was largely Pumpernickel, made out of rye...

highly susceptible to ergot poisoning after a wet summer.

Or it could just be that wild and wacky German sense of humor.

Text on yours: addressed to Hornist Müller, 8th Company, 1st Guard Regiment of Foot, and thanks dear friend August, says HIS card has been received...

Oh, <b> come on!</b> Does anyone not recognize a HQ staff officer group photo when they see one??

Interesting that in 1913, they are modeling washbasins as "helmets". Little did they know that in a couple years, they'd be fighting the Brits and Americans wearing same. When did the "Brodie" helmet first come into use?
