WW1 German photos

p. bentzel

can anyone tell me anything about the photos. It is Heinrich Wolpmann born Brokhuchting, Huchting, Bremen taken 1908-1922. He went to Germany from the US with his family and was caught there during WW1, still being a Germany citizen he was required to serve. The photo back is in German and not sure what it says. Know nothing about his uniform. The last photo of him

was taken later and know nothing about it. Do not have back of photo. Any information appreciated.

Not quite sure what response you expect. Obviously you know who is portrayed here. The photos are typical studio photographs from the early years of the last century, the upper one by a photographer named "Sommer" in Harburg, a city just south of Hamburg. The other from "Lissner & Brandt" in Dresden, the capital of Saxony.
