1919 Formation of the Western Army
This cover and card illustrate how Western Army (Avalov-Bermondt)forces assembled in Jelgawa during the summer of 1919. The early August 1919 cover from Kuldiga is addressed to the Freiwilliger [Volunteer] Max Ullmann with a civilian address, corrected on arrival. The late August card from Max Ullmann spells out his complete military address on the left of the card.
