Help with Identifying Image

[Panzer Bob]

Hello all!
I am going through the photos of my late friend's collection and came across this image. Since it is completely out of my collecting field, I thought someone here might be able to identify the subject matter. The photo itself appears to have been printed/mounted on some sort of thick card stock and to have come from a photo album?
Any help would be appreciated!
TIA,
Bob Edwards

Austrian, based on the scoops in his pocket flaps and the cockade on his hat.

Thanks!

Thanks for the help. Sorry for stereotyping, but he looked somewhat oriental to me.

Well, if he is Hungarian (at that time Austria-Hungary), he could have Asian features. The Mongols visited that area and left a lot of souveniers of their visit. Then there was Attila who was (scholars think) possibly a blend of Turk/Mongol/Urgian.

I had a friend who was a 2nd generation Hungarian and she had almond eyes. That was the story she gave me when I remarked on her "Asian" features.
