One Uhlan ?

[HPL2008]

He's wearing an Ulanka, the tunic worn by the uhlans (as Lebus said). Rank is Leutnant [2nd Lieutenant]

The dedication says:

"Dietrich Witzleben
in dankbarer Erinnerung
an lehrreiche Stunden
Bromberg, November
1911"

...meaning:

"Dietrich Witzleben
in grateful memory
of instructive hours
Bromberg, November
1911"

It is not an Ulanka, as there is no piping, but instead he is wearing an Überrock. I believe him to be an officer in Grenadier-zu-Pferd-Regt. Freiherr von Derfflinger (Neumärkisches) Nr.3 (Bromberg) II Armee Korps. This is actually 3rd Dragoon Regiment The coat should be Cornflower blue with a pink collar (in a b/w photo they may appear the same) and a cypher on the shoulder strap. The Überrock was the daily business dress for a German officer.
