in the back row, slightly to the right of Liman von Sanders: isn't that Mustafa Kemal, the future Kemal Atatürk? Interesting body language as he learns forward, apparently to make himself more prominent. He's the only one wearing his headgear at a slightly rakish angle and he seems to be smiling confidently at the camera. Everybody else is posing with an unsmiling expression. This officer is destined for far greater things.
