Austrian uniform?

Postby Sophie on 01 Mar 2008 00:10

Hi,

I found this picture somewhere in a box with my grandmother's belongings who worked in Germany during second world war

I heard this was an Austrian officer

Can anyone confirm me this is an Austrian uniform and tell me which is the army rank of this man?

Many thanks,

Sophie
