The writing looks not from 1944. I think it was made later.

page 624 rk2 -

I dont think it is Valtiner, because he stayed Gefreiter until january 1942. What about Oberjäger Karl Oberkircher?

Kind regards

Are you sure?I was looking at his clasp and I would rather say that he came from a bomber unit, not from a Stuka-unit.
p1 page 633 could be Willibald Unfried?

Dear Ingo & mkrivchenko

From page 634, do you think the Luftwaffe General with the new RKT could be Franz Reuß?

Hi Docarchiv

The picture matches other images I have of Hachtel, including the clasp.

Thanks, Ingo
The man on the right in image 4 and on the left in images 5 and 7 appears to be wearing General's collar tabs.
