It says:

"F. [= Für] Oberkriegsger.Rat [= Oberkriegsgerichtsrat] Dr. [...] in Dankbarkeit."
["To Oberkriegsgerichtsrat Dr. [...] in gratitude."]

Not sure on the name.

No; Bogatsch wasn't a doctor. It's a signed and dedicated photo presented by him to a military judge who held a doctorate.

ok, I understand now.

Also, it looks like I was incorrect about him being an Oberst, after a google search of him it appears he was a General.

thanks to both of you for identifying and the translation.
