Hungarian sergeants junior grade

An early photo (1923 or 1924) of my father (Szabo Jozsef 1903-1989) as a private in the Royal Hungarian Army... Note, the sword apparently was  part of the uniform.

Magyar Kiralyi Honved

This 1934 photo shows my father, Szabo Jozsef (1903-1989), second from left and fellow non-com Horvath Janos, Royal Hungarian Army (Honvedseg) doing their "thing" to a machine gun. The boots must have been standard footwear for duty. - Note the third "man" is a poster on the wall (no legs!).
