Benito Mussolini visit to Germany, as he is in the photo. 1938 ?

[Tom B]

Sorry, his visit was in 1937. Hitler took him to watch military maneuvers but I don't know where. Tom

[H.W Plainview]

all right thank you that explains also the old helmet pattern.

i looks a lot like this lalendorf meeting here on september 26th 1937

with Generalfeldmarschall Werner von Blomberg.

what do you think ?

The eagle order star is in diff position on the uniform in the two pic's. IMO two diff days on the pic's. Tom

[H.W Plainview]

indeed..ok thank you guys.

I think that is the 'Order of Saints Maurice and Lazarus' not the Eagle order as that is the only one I know of that has a cross bottony

[Gerdan]

And we still have to find out what is written on the reverse of the photo.

Very true....Galembert was a great match but that must be a name of a small town they crossed.
