I have some family photographs of a relative (indicated by the red arrow), and I was hoping a historian could help identify the type of uniform and possibly rank of individuals? I believe they are military uniforms but I am not sure. The photographs are roughly from 1912 in Germany on a ship and at the Berlin Royal Palace (I believe?).
Any information would be much appreciated!
