This thread identified the second man from the right, front row, as Commichau. I have seen that as being ID'ed as him as well from a Czech site. The pic I posted below is from our forum, I believe originally from a Norwegian archive that somehow isn't working anymore. Someone id'ed him as a träger of the German Eagle order. In fact it may well be the PLM, as the Order of German Eagle normally goes to politician/diplomats and not to RAD members. Commichau was the only other PLM RAD general besides v Wenckstern. He certainly looked like the blurry Commichau in the aforementioned thread.

Re: RAD Generals
As we all know, Commichau died not long after Heydrich's assassination. Does anyone recognize who was his successor as RAD general in Bohemia? In the group pic with Hierl, looks like Schaal on the extreme left. Caption said date was 24.06.44.

Re: RAD Generals
After a little more research, the Man with K. H. Frank could be Triebel, Gauarbeitsführer Warthegau West. There were 2 gaue in GG, the other being Warthegau Ost under Consilius and it was not him.

Re: RAD Generals
Hi Georges,
I have ObstAF Bruno Heinze as Gauführer for AG XII in 1937/38. Do you know if Schneider was his successor?
