A cyber-friend of mine emailed me these two photos from the WW1 era—he found them in a box left by his late mother, and wanted to know if I could help find out anything about them. His mother was born in 1925, so it’s possible they date to post-war.
The first photo looks to me like an American uniform, with gaiters rather than WW1 puttees. Does anyone know if that helps to date the photo? Is it maybe post-WW1?
The second photo looks like a group of German … cadets? Those don’t look to me like WW1 Army officer field tunics…?
Any info would be appreciated.
