Default Old military Photograph

Hi, I have an old photograph, that I need help with. There are 14 soldiers
and 9 of them are smoking Sherlock Holmes type pipes (large bent pipes with
lids). One subject has "KG" on his chest, and another has it on his knees. I
am far from being an expert, but I think they may be Austrian. I can send
you an image if this helps. What does the KG stand for, and what country are
they from?

After searching the internet I may have found what KG stands for -
Kampfgeschwader (a bomber squadron of the former German Luftwaffe). Am I
correct, or totally stupid? You can contact me at michael(no
spam)@musgrave6537.freeserve.co.uk Please remove "(no spam)" first

KG means KriegsGefangene (Prisoner of War), so they are allied POW's in a
german camp
