In an odd way (and tragic way), WWI was an oversized family discussion...

When Wilhelm II died in exile, in Holland, in June, 1941, the nazis made a State Funeral for him, in spite of his wishes on the contrary. On this footage, you can see, among the mouners, the last Generalfieldmarschall from the German Empire then alive, August von Mackensen, in his full Hussar uniform, including busby.
