1914 German airmen
In OTF 9-1 p84 there is a picture of a group of German airmen supposedly taken on 1 Oct 1914 possibly taken somewhere north-east of Somme-PY.There names are Hptmn H. von Chamier-Glisczinski, "chief of the flying corps", possibly the head of a army's aviation units? Also Ltn Graf Rambaldi and a Ltn Burger a pilot and observer team. Can anyone tell me more about them? The photo was posted there by Adam Wait and is from a 1915 book "With German Armies in the West" by Sven Anders. This could be a FFA with the German 3rd Army possibly numbers 10, 13, 22, 28, 29. Also the unit in the photo was flying Gotha Tauben and FFA 10 was equiped with this aircraft at the start of the war.
