LRRPS,

thanks, one down :D ,added to the index.
You had this request for Hansjörg Hauser and Ludwig Franz recently ; so, this is the first pic detected ? Or did you get other hints (pic from the BA) in the meantime ?

@all,
after a tour of adding pics from pp 140-152 I spotted a rounding up for the following men :

Hans-Wilhelm Bender
identified recently
Hans-Wilhelm Bender, award ceremony in hospital
same pic series, nice shots ; closer look on the nurse.. 8O :)

Karl Eibl
identified already ; rest of doubts (?) -> with Siebert also ?
Karl Eibl , with Friedrich Siebert
identified on page 144

Best regards
Bernd

Hi Bernd,

Got the pics from BA, of both Ludwig Franz and Hauser. BA had 2 pics of Franz, one of them the exact same as shown here.


Best,

Going on with another bunch of pages / another time period of the thread with some very good pages with very few
not identified

page 100 : rkt31_110.jpg - Ernst Dehner ? - confirmed ?

page 101 : Unknown Pionier RK.jpg

page 102 : unknown KC4.jpg

page 104 : pic by Tim-DC - Georg Scholze ?
I would go with Scholze. Confirmation ?

page 105 : Biblio 7.jpg and Biblio 8.jpg , Biblio 11.jpg - not Betzel !?, Thomaschki ?
the open ones from Dieter's Biblio series.
the group pics 9 and 10 will come separately, as I'm not through the evaluation of the discussion ; that's cruel :)

page 107 : series of four by Daniel : top right - Ernst Michael, IR 2 ? , bottom right - ??
Georg Jauer, awarding Friedrich Memmert ?

page 108 : Image 1,2,3.jpg

And let's see if I got it right and if it is and was correct, the distinction between Karl Gümbel and Walter Fischer von Weikersthal.

Karl Gümbel, id
Karl Gümbel
and after discussion finally :
Karl Gümbel , with Rommel
based on having here Rommel + Gümbel + Weikersthal
http://forum.axishistory.com/viewtopic. ... 45#p831645

Fischer von Weikersthal, other ids
Walter Fischer von Weikersthal (autograph)
Walter Fischer von Weikersthal

which allows the id of Gümbel again (page 152)
http://forum.axishistory.com/viewtopic. ... 1#p1079991
http://forum.axishistory.com/viewtopic. ... 4#p1080104 , with Gerhard Behnke (StuG)
and once again
http://forum.axishistory.com/viewtopic. ... 3#p1080183

Best regards

Hello, Bernd,

You are asking for confirmation of a pic posted on page 104. I do confirm that that is a photograph of Generalmajor Georg Scholze.

Hope this helps.

Hello, Bernd,

You ask for id's of 1,2,3 on Page 108. They are depictions of Friedrich Quentin.

Hope this helps.
