Hi,
I'm looking for some photos of the Fallschirmjäger commander Oberstleutnant Friedrich August von der Heydte. Thanks,
Gavin.

Glad to help you! :wink:
Here you have two more pics. They are even a good "footage" or sequence of his last mission: Stösser (that great disaster in the Bulge...). The first pic is one of my favourites. It depicts the disaster commented before. After the jump, Oberleutnant von Kayser is reporting the situation to VDH. His face features the strain and failure, scattered on that area (Mont Rigi-Baraque Michel)... The last one was taken at Monschau, after his surrender.
Hope this helps.
