Mueller and Feist, with a Pfalz and... a Teddy Bear?

The info which came with this photo says that the two fellas are 'Leutnants Mueller und Feist mit ein Pfalz D.IIIa'. Ich kenne nicht... uhhh... I mean, I dunno if that's correct or not...

Three dudes with an Albatros... and a disclaimer

Your blogmeister feels it necessary to preface this first post with the following disclaimer... he is fascinated by the flying machines of the First World War, but knows relatively little about them compared to things with wings of other eras.
