Can someone tell me what nation the two army officers in this photo represent? This photo was taken in New London, CT in November 1916. The men in this photo are all visitors to the cargo U-boat Deutschland. The man on the left of the army officer in the overcoat is Paul König, the captain of the U-Deutschland. Security on and around the State Pier in New London, where the U-Deutschland was berthed, was very tight, and no one was allowed anywhere near the U-Deutschland, much less on her foredeck without Captain König’s authorization, which means that the two army officers and the civilians who are clustered around König had some significance. The officer on the left, partially out of the photo, looks like he might be cavalry, and I wonder if he and the older officer standing next to Captain König might be Austro-Hungarian. I would appreciate any comments. Thanks. Dwight
