Photographs of SS-Standartenfuhrer Paul Blobel in uniform
Does anyone have any photographs of SS-Standartenfuhrer Paul Blobel wearing his SS uniform they could please post on the forum?
I have never seen a photograph of this man in uniform and in fact the only 2 photos I have seen are from the Nuremberg Trials in 1947.
Hope someone can help.
Best regards,

paul blobel in uniform
I've been searching for more than ten years and.....wait, that's not right.
The book "Masters of Death, the einsatzgruppen and the invention of the Holocaust"
has some pictures of him. The book goes into quite some detail about his activities and how he got sick of what he was doing, Heydrich told him that he had a tummy issue and to cure him, Heydrich started to have Blobel exhume and burn many of the vicims of the einsatzgruppen to cover up the murders.
All the best!

My copy has the usual single photo in Allg-SS uniform (shown up above).The book "Masters of Death, the einsatzgruppen and the invention of the Holocaust" has some pictures of him.
the book says that
"Heydrich told him that he had a tummy issue"
I have yet to see any evidence that he met Heydrich to receive orders for the obliteration of the mass graves, maybe Max can advise us on this one, I doubt it personally, "Gestapo" Mueller seems far more likely.
