About me…
I’m a retired teacher, 31 years passed in the blink of an eye. I have two grown children. My wife Julie and I have been married since 1992. Passionate about the Great War and all it’s connections to the present day. This is my third blog here on Tumblr; Meninroad and Poorbloodyinfantry. Drop me a line if you like!

Future 7 victory ace Leutnant Georg Strasser of Jasta 17 in front of his Albatros D.V/DVa(?). Seen here as a Vizefeldwebel which would date the photo between 10 July and 13 August 1917, when he received a field promotion to Leutnant. He was WIA in December 1917 and as far as I can ascertain didn't fly combat again. He survived the war but was killed on 4 December 1925 as a test pilot for Junkers. Sanke card #638, text reads "Our brave battle flyer Vizefeldwebel Straßer"
