Thanks Joe, that's wat I figured. My last post may have been confusing since it contains an error, oops, I forgot to upload the photo of the reverse side that I will have add later.

Very nice picture Dave, that´s the way I like them Hohenzollernstr. in Kassel (25 miles away from my home btw) no longer exists, renamed after the war.... I bet the officer was member of the Kassel Bereitschaftspolizei in 1932, which was located in the Hohenzollernstr....close to the photographers company.

Hi Gerd,

I like this photo. The police men wear the belt buckle 1.type.

On the original photos the buckle is clearly visible, the scan is not so nice...

the scan is not so nice...

A great shot Interesting to see such a buckle on the hips of a late 20ies Police trainee

Gerd, thank you for that insightful information! I really appeciate it, especially since I live so far away to understand the intracacies that you have an advantage at being so close to the source!
