Hi

The naval officer could very well be Vizeadmiral Friedrich Ruge, naval liason officer of Heeresgruppe B. http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friedrich_Ruge

For the identification of the other persons I would advice Hans Sakkers book about Rommel; he has a lot of photos in it.

Two more pictures from ebay.
On the first one I think we have Ernst SIELER when he was with the Staff of the Reichskriegsgericht. But, who are the two generals with him?.
On the second one it looks obvious that the general with helmet must be with a Pioneer unit but I can´t identify him and the other general.
Cheers. :)

Miocid,

Two working hypotheses...

1) The man next to Sieler (stand up) could be Albrecht Steppuhn.
2) And the general (without helmet) could be Rudolf Gercke, Chef des Feldtransportwesens.

Cheers.
