Art Siegel said:
LOC, note error in transcription "Galicia"
"Albert Theodor Otto Emmich (since 1913 von Emmich) (April 4, 1848 – December 22, 1915) was a Prussian general."
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Otto_von_Emmich
(there is more detail in German Wikipedia: de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Otto_von_Emmich)
In April, 1915, he was transferred to the Eastern Front for the major German offensive which began in May of that year.

There's something strange going on with this train coach. Look at all of the cables coming out of the windows and heading up to the roof.

Arden said:
artolog: Thank you for the other image of Emmich, the additional details and for catching the typo in the title. We will update the description with the new information. LWyman: You are right about the cables on top of the train. Any ideas what could be going on?

When looking for idea as to what the cables on the train are, I found a great set of German postcards from 1914-1916: www.allworldwars.com/German-World-War-I-Postcards-Part-I.... Nothing showing the cables, but there is a picture of Emmich's funeral. The source of the postcards may be New York Public Library -- digitalgallery.nypl.org/nypldigital/dgkeysearchresult.cfm... -- but the site above has translated the captions and narrowed the date range.
Germans at Berry-Au-Bac (LOC)

Chris Walter said:
The caption is, hence the title should be, "Berry-Au-Bac". Thanks.

Art Siegel said:
Berry-au-bac, France, was on the German western front line in 1915, a site of the First Battle of the Aisne in September, 1914, when trench warfare began. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_Battle_of_the_Aisne

Ryan (LOC P&P) said:
Thanks to both of you for noting the error and providing more information about the battle. We'll make the changes the next time we update the record.
