The Army guys were my fellow LAD people. The two with black berets and round cap badges were our two MSO (Mixed Services Organisation or displaced people working as pseudo military, unarmed but clothed, fed and accommodated by us, mainly Latvians, Poles and Yugoslavs) drivers.
The civilians were local Germans employed mainly as vehicle mechanics, they could change a VW engine in twenty minutes.
