Neat photo Ron. Crown Prince Wilhelm was the honorary "commander" of the 1st Leib Hussars and his sister Victoria Luise was the honorary commander of the 2nd Leib Hussars. Both units were legendary and actually under the command of Feld Marshall August von Mackensen. Unfortunately there is no link whatsoever to either of these units and the "Deathead Luger"...I wish there was.
