Opinions welcome

Tolga, could the person to the left be Karl Ullrich? Also, very interesting to see the camouflage hood being worn like that, I've never seen that before.

Best regards/ Daniel

Hi Daniel,

Yes it is possible to be Ulrich,SS RKT with camouflage uniform is also very close to me but I can't recognize him.

Best Regards

Hello Tolga,

it is Kurt Franke and Karl Ulrich. The photo was taken in March 1944 near Balta in Romania.

Hi Denis,

I had suggested the officer between Sandner and Ehiger was Ferdinand Anton Hodurek on PP40. I still think that is the case.

BTW, who were these lucky fellows?

Cheers
