ID of General Orpo and SS-Brif. (Ukraine 1942)

Hello,

I have found 2 photos on http://www.yadvashem.org
Could you help me to identify some Orpo Generals ?

Image 1 : the only comment "1942 Ukraine.."
The other police officer may be Ahlers, but who can be this SS Orpo General ?

Image 2 : the only comment "1942 Ukraine.."
From left to right :
- Alfred Rosenberg
- partially hided : a Generalleutnant der Orpo (and SS) : may be Otto von Oelhafen, BdO Ukraine
- SS-Brif Hans Haltermann, SSPF Kiew
- a SS-Brif : Who ? may be von Bassewitz-Behr, SSPF in the area
- a order police general, who ? may be Paul Scheer, KdO Kiew, but Scheer seems always taller on other pics... ?

Thank you and best regards,

Durerer/Emmanuel

Hello Durerer/Emmanuel,
SS-Brif. between Hans Haltermann and Paul Scheer is Willi Tensfeld (not Bassewitz-Behr) in this moment as SSPF "Charkow".
Best,

Andrey.

Good work, Andrey. And as usual, wearing his Braunschweig Abzeichen.

Paul Scheer was the husband of my mother's cousin (both dead now).

I'm actually just now writing an article about him for a local history magazine.
I would like to use those photos - but unfortunately can't find the original url.
Thanks for any help in advance!
