The construction force was honored with a parade through Bad Kissingen. The photo clears up one small mystery from the construction phase; that it was a civilian work force under general military control who did the actual labor at the work site.
 

Close up of the work force. The small sign would indicate the trade of the following workers, "Masons" for example.
 

With the Kaserne only partially completed, the 2 Kradschutzen Battalion arrives from Coburg as the new tenant. The parent Schutzen Brigade is located at Meiningen. Seen here, the unit drives down Kapellen Strasse.
