Hi gentlemen!

Can anybody offer the DoB of Harro Harder, one of three top scoring experts in Spain. And of course ... a pic would be appreciated.

Many thanks in advance.

Regards,
Stauffenberg II

Thanks AHLF!

Unfortunately I already have the two available online pics. But both of them are of low resp. medium quality. I would like to have a real mugshot.

Nevertheless thanks for your efforts and the reply. Sorry for being not precise enough.

Ahem.. came across this photo too, but I think it's just his brother sitting in a cockpit with Harro's name beneath, if you know what I mean.
best,

AHLF.

Photos from Harder during his service in Spain with the Legion Condor.
Portrait, his plane crashed in a emergency landing, and the "Hababuk" of his squadron.
