A group of officers most of whom display the ribbon of the Iron Cross in the appropriate manner on the second button of their tunic and then tucked behind the material. It is interesting to note the character 2nd left in the middle row with the lighter moustache wears the ‘Litewka’ jacket, commonly associated with the Landwehr or Landsturm; and as an officers ‘undress’ tunic. It was also used by motor troops. Litewka is the Polish word for a Lithuanian.

This black-and-white photographic postcard shows an apparently wounded soldier, with a bandaged head and his left arm in a sling, wearing what appears to be a kilt apron and instructing a ragtag band of three small boys carrying toy weapons. A ‘J.V.’ logo can be seen on the front of the card, along with the legend ‘Soldiers of the King’, while the information ‘PRINTED IN GREAT BRITAIN’ is given on the reverse. || A British patriotic postcard. || || Postcard || A British patriotic postcard titled 'Soldiers of the King'.
