Yes! That is 16th infantry regiment.

Yes! But motorised unit of the regiment used German 1916 helmets, similar to Autrian ones!

The original purpose of medieval grammar schools was the teaching of Latin. Over time the curriculum was broadened, first to include Ancient Greek, and later English and other European languages, as well as the natural sciences, mathematics, history, geography and other subjects

hmmmm....

Almost. Many words scrawled on the board are of Latin and Greek origin. :):):)
