Mama Regina and Uncle Artur Steinhardt

Uncle Artur is on the left and Regina in the foreground Uncle Artur joined the Austro-hungarian army. Here he is with his Mama Regina and a few army chums. The uniform is easily identifiable because of the scalloped pockets. Apparently Jewish people from all over the Austro-Hungarian empire supported the Emperor Franz Joseph because the multicultural empire kept the forces of nationalism at bay. They  paraded to the sound of Strauss's Radetzky-March .
