Hello, guys!

A riddle for you from the Nachrichtenfest. :) Erich Fellgiebel and Albert Praun with a freeze face, but who is the other General?

Hi, Ruslan!

He bears some resemblance to Walter Kuntze.

All the best.

I think it is Walter Keiner of 62 ID. He was part of XV Korps under Hoth at the beginning of the invasion of France. Praun was NaFü of Group Hoth during this time. On the extreme right could be Keiner's Chef Obst Karl Schuchardt

Hello, guys!

Gregg, is a good version! Mr. Kuntze also was in my list, but as we see our man doesn't have any pips on his shoulder - boards and Walter Kuntze was promoted to GdP in 1938..

Elwyn, is also a cool variant, I seen photo of Keiner with a monocle, but never seen his ribbon bar and you?

btw, I think that man in this thread it is not GL Crisolli, but also Walter Keiner.
