Sources
Gentlemen,
I am interested to know the root sources for some of the pictures here posted, ie whether Original photos are owned by the posters, or where they are scanned form etc etc..???
Some I know have been scanned by someone from one of the Arndt publications of photo collection of Walter Frentz...
Personally and I am NOT getting at anybody, but I like to see thins info, it goves credit for the photo source where known and is a useful research tool for others who might want to get books etc.
Also, it might cover someones ass when somebody tells Arndt we have all the lovely pics from their books on this site.
Regards

Schoerner not Busse
For the color picture of Manstein, I think Schoerner is back of AH not Busse.
Hi,
It's Busse and not Schoerner because Schoerner was rarely seen without his PLM. Busse was a relatively young staff officer who won his RK only on 30.01.44. He was not wearing one since Manstein looked like he was still running the show -- Manstein was canned on 31.03.44 as Oberhefehlshaber Army Group Don so this picture predated Busse getting knighted, so to speak.
Cheers

Busse
A black and white sequence of photographs from the same conference appear in Manstein: Stratege und Truppenführer by J. Engelmann. They were taken at the Wolfsschanze on the 15th of September 1943. Manstein was accompanied by his Chief of Staff Generalleutnant Busse. Also present at the conference were Generalfeldmarschall von Kleist, Generaloberst Zeitzler, Generaloberst Ruoff and General der Panzertruppe Kempf.
