need help identifying a uniform and maybe more

Please, if any one has time, I need help identifying this uniform. It’s my great-grandfather pic. It looks Austro-Hungarian to me but that white collar is really throwing me off.

To complicate things even more, he’s supposed to be Polish (wasn’t Poland under Russian control during WWI?). I’m pretty ignorant maybe this is a post WWI uniform but it’s definitely pre-1930.

Any help would be much appreciated thanks.

Oh, and as a bonus, if any one knows about labor camps Poles might have gone to during WWI era. My grandfather was in a POW camp where my great-great-grandfather worked at in some official capacity. The family story is that the gg-grandfather (Czech) packed up the prisoners and everyone left the conflict ridden area, eventually making their way to Brazil. The labor camp supposedly had to do with fishing.

I don’t expect any answers on the whole labor camp thing, I just thought I throw it out there since I’m doing the research.

Serialized SS Partial Rohm Dagger for opinions…

Hi all,

I just received this partial Rohm Serialized SS dagger in the mail yesterday and thought I’d share it here for opinions. This is my second Partial Rohm SS, however my first is in much nicer condition overall, with the exception of the blade.

The scabbard on this one is very pitted and silver in tone, with rust spotting. A couple screws are missing from the scabbard fittings so my assumption is the vet attempted to refurbish it and in the process stripped what remained of the scabbard paint down to the metal. The cross guards also appear to have been very lightly steel wooled, although you have to look very closely to see the fine grain left by the wool. The grip has suffered quite a bit of shrinkage, and has cracked in a couple of places. Oddly enough, the areas where the wood actually chipped away are smoothed over. Typically when I see a chip the wood around the chipped piece is still somewhat jagged and sharp.

The blade is fairly nice, considering the condition of the grip and scabbard. Where Rohm’s name was ground away you can see a swirl pattern as if the soldier tried to clean up the roughness of the grind… did a bad job of it :)

For the money I feel it was a good purchase, and the fact its both a partial Rohm AND a serialized dagger as well makes it a somewhat rare find in any condition as far as I’m concerned.

Would love to hear what everyone thinks…

Soldiers with name of Mosel.

Hello,

My family is originally from the Mosel region of Germany and coincidentally we have the last name of "Mosel". Evidently cousins of mine own a winery over there but anyways I’d like any information anyone may have regarding any soldier with the last name of Mosel. Thanks so much.
