A wee bit late  :)

Herr Drews was the junior veterinary surgeon (Roßarzt) of Dragoner-Regiment von Bredow (1. Schlesisches) Nr. 4 garrisoned in Lüben. He was appointed as such with effect 15. June 1896. He wears the uniform not of a dragoon officer but that of a veterinary official of the Prussian military administration. Rudolf Drews retired from full time military service on 27 July 1899. He elected to return to Landwehr service as a veterinary officer in the rank of Oberveterinär in June 1911. Mobilised in 1914, he was promoted to Stabsveterinär (captain) der Reserve on 24 April 1915.  He died of sickness in 1918.
