Who is the person in the photo below? He appears to be a Gauleiter, but because this is a 1934 photo, he may be a member of the Reichsleitung with "Gauleiter-style" collar-tabs. (Source: NARA)

Hello,
I think this is Friedrich Hildebrandt.
Poor quality photo, but correct face angle is attached to compare.
Best,

Andrey.

I think you are right, Andrey. Thank you...and, thank you too, Michal. Below is a photograph of Hildebrandt from the same year to compare. Source: NARA
