Hello Georg

Hastuf. Heinrich Wewerinke led 3./Germania until 01.February.1936; he was then succeeded by Ostuf. August Schmidhuber (promoted Hastuf. on 13.September.1936), who led the company until 01.November.1936.

Sorry, I do not know who led the company since 01.November.1936.

Regards from Madrid

Ignacio

Hello Georg, hello Ignacio.
Wewerinke and Schmidhuber are correct.
However, as we know, administrative dates in SS-Personelfiles not always were in line with the actual transferdates.
In this case Schmidhuber already left 3./SS-G per 12 October 1936 to be succeeded by Hst. Götsche. Götsches career as Chef 3./G lasted only two days until 14 October 1936, when he was relieved from his command after appearing drunk in front of his new company. The next day he was succeeded by Ost. Clemens Stickdorn.
Best regards,
Marten

MAny thanks for your help. The Hstuf must be Schmidhuber as the photo is taken in the spring or summer. Even if the officer doesn´t look 100% as Schimdhuber, but to find prewar photos of him is pretty hard I guess.

Best regards

I think I speak on behalf of the entire Axis History community when I say that I want to see that photo.

Indeed. But here's one viewtopic.php?f=38&t=149716

Hello Ivan

Of course I can send the part where you see the officers. The SS-Ustuf. to the right is also very familiar,

Nice to see the early version of Stabsscharführer on the NCO to the SS-Hstuf.`s right.

Best regards
Georg

A fine photo, Georg, thanks for posting! The SS-Hstuf. is not Schmidhuber though, but I think there are indeed some other familiar faces there...

If bogo's identification here is correct viewtopic.php?t=165777, the SS-Hstuf. could be Wewerinke (see #10), which would date your photo Jan. 1936 (that is, if the year's definitely 1936). I don't know what Stickdorn looked like, but he was promoted to SS-Hstuf. in early 1937.

Cheers,
Ivan
