I would have posted this on the new WWII reenactors forum but they arn't up yet.

I am doing some significant genealogical research and have come across a picture of my uncle Leopold in uniform 1944 when he would have been 16 or 17 years old. We have no documents to assist us and my mother has no idea of what unit he may have served in, and there are no other relatives left who can really assist with this. While my research on the military service of my other relatives is going well, I have hit a wall with this gent.

Does anyone have any thoughts on what I can learn from the uniform? I have a couple of ideas but I won't bias your response with them.

Hopefully the picture is attached.

Thanks
