Hi Hardy,

Thanks very much for the translation.

Klotz and Lubbe are obviously very good equestrian riders and I was thinking that the Volkfest, Magdeburg was used as a practice event leading up to the 1936 Olympic Games.

As they were not part of the Olympic team maybe the Heer had a riding team.
All photos show riders in Heer uniforms.

Cheers,
Larry
