Here's another one I was sent... I'm curious about the crown and flowers on the woman and the ribbons on the guy to the right.

I was reading your post with interest. I have a few photos of my Uncle, who we believe was in the Polish army. He was living in Lithuiana (but from a Polish family) and I believe the attached photo was taken around 1934-36. Can anyone confirm that he is wearing a Polish uniform?
