Hi there, I just discovered this nice photo in our family possession.  After a  small research I found out that it is one of the Flammenwerfer-Pioniere. Unfortunately I can't identify the unit and not everything written on the backside -  what I do can read is the following

.... 6/7 Aug 1918

Zum Andenken an  ..  .. / in memory of  .. ..

Compliment Mademoiselle Helene

Thought you might be interested in this...

If anyone has some indications/ annotations/ translations concerning this photo - shoot away

Cheers from Germany, Chris

It is Tourcoing in Northern France on the border with Belgium.

The unit is always Garde-Reserve-Pionier-Regiment.
