I think telex is a lot faster

Telex is fine but won't transmit images, Ed. To send pictures use the belinographe (used for the first time in 1914!):



By the way I really like your IR116 helmet. Where did you find it?

 

[J.LeBrasseur]

Very cool and nicely marked, congrats!

Hi Spiker,

Great Haube! :bravo:

But bad translation ...The right name is KLINGELHÖFER, typical hessian name.

And here is probably you guy, Wehrmann Ludwig Klingelhöfer of the 2/JR116, lightly wounded by Le Quesnoy / Damery between 31.11 and 2.11.1914 :wink:

Thanks gents, and thanks Philippe fort that research =D>

Sorry for bad translation ; I blame the sitcom 'Allo 'Allo!

All I can say as that helme should be mine! The markings always seal the deal!
