Re: Gestapo Chief photograph?
Man on the right holding the machine gun is Karl Kaleske, Stroop's adjutant.
Do we know who the officer in the foreground is?

Re: Gestapo Chief photograph?
it says at USHMM ( http://inquery.ushmm.org/uia-cgi/uia_do ... uia_KDAyIq ) that it is Ludwig Hahn!!Max Williams wrote:Ludwig Hahn is not in this photo.

"An SS officer questions two Jewish resistance fighters during the suppression of the Warsaw ghetto uprising as SS Major General Juergen Stroop (rear, center) and his security detail look on. The original German caption reads: "Jewish traitors."
Among those pictured is the KdS (Kommandeur des Sicherheitsdienstes and Sicherheitspolizei) in Warsaw, SS-Standartenfuehrer Dr. Ludwig Hahn (in leather coat)."

Re: Gestapo Chief photograph?
It's not Hahn.
This officer appears also on the other photo with Stroop (F.MacLean "The Ghetto Men" p.194)
MacLean states that this is SS-Ostuf Franz Konrad (hanged after war in Warsaw).
