73rd (Hanoverian) Regiment (German Army)

This, of course, was Jünger's regiment. I know that the rank title of the basic grade soldier varied between different German regiments - 'Landsturmann', 'Soldat', 'Musketier', etc. What was he called in the 73rd Hanoverians?

Many thanks in advance.

But don't forget that he got promoted!

Hi,

here are a group of tailors of FR 73 sewing on the cuffband GIBRALTAR on the old peacetime tunic obviously still in use in 1916. The tunic above the "C" is a fieldgrey tunic.
