I am wondering if any of our German comrades could translate a phrase for my friend. It is found on his great great grandfathers WW1 German artillery photograph(s). I dont have the photo to post.
"fur grinnerung an meine dienstzeit"

closest I know is "for ____ on my service"????? what is grinnerung?

thanks.

oh do we still have an arty DG? I will see if I can get copies of the pics...

What looks like an F is a Z and the G is an E so ...

"Zur Erinnerung an meine Dientszeit" translates:

In memory/remebrance of my service
