Hello ttvon,

The Ritterkreuzträger on the right is Johann von RAVENSTEIN. And the other man is Winrich BEHR.

Cheers.

gunter83 wrote:my information from this book, but i think that their ID is mistake. Like Hardigan i think that's on the photo Dorr. Maybe part of his award ceremony. Behind Wagner isn't Dieckmann. Also i find other mistake in same book. On image is Max Schäfer, i think. But in book signs "Otto Paetsch". It's very funny for me that it's Paetsch.
No, It's Dieckmann for sure. And in the other picture it's Schäfer in the middle and Paetsch on the far right.

Here is an interesting pic and perhaps somebody can help.

On the left is the later Oak leaves winner Adolf Glunz and right next to him is the later Oak leaves winner Joachim Kirschner. The pic must been taken betweenn 15.10.1942 and 23.12.1942.

On 15.10.1942 Adolf Glunz was awarded with the German Cross in Gold and on 23.12.1942 Joachim Kirschner was awarded with the Knights Cross.

Who is the Knights Cross winner in the middle ? He and perhaps the other persons are from JG 3 "Udet". Perhaps also some of the other persons are later Knights cross winners ?
