I wondered about this too. This photo comes from the Imperial War Museum photo archives in London the original caption reads that the photo depicts Schreck at a 9 November 1933 reunion. jvMax History wrote:Well, for a start, I can tell you that Schreck is not!
It appears to be a photo of low ranking NSDAP members.

Ah, that explains it! The IWM are not the experts they profess to be. I have numerous experiences of their mistakes.jv wrote:I wondered about this too.

Sorry, Mark, but I doubt very much that is Fiehler....just someone who looks a bit like him.Mark Costa wrote:They may be low ranking but this is a reunion of some of the members of the Stosstrupp Adolf Hitler. And not all are low ranking --- note Reichsleiter Karl Fiehler sixth from left with the stripped tie.

9 November 1933 Reunion
You're right. I went back to the original caption and it said that it was a November reunion of the Stosstrupp. I still wonder who the SS officer is. Is central person in the photo a Gauleiter? jvMark Costa wrote:Sorry Max but it is definately Fiehler. I have researched him for many years and have hundreds of photos of him in the early days. I too have seen this photo before and its a reunion of the Stosstrupp of which Fiehler was a member.

I've also got many photos of Fiehler spanning the twenties and thirties. I still don't think it's him. I believe this is one of those occasions where a similar looking face in a crowd is mistaken for someone more famous. Also....Mark Costa wrote:Sorry Max but it is definately Fiehler.

1) Fiehler's hairstyle was different in 1933;
2) Why is he in civilian clothes (one of only two in the photo)? Fiehler would be in uniform.
3) Why is this man taking such a backward position? For such an important Party member, Fiehler would be in a more prominent position.
Just some interesting points.

I will post later today a photo of Fiehler taken in the 1930's that will match this face completely. And in this photo he is with Hitler and has his Reichsleiter uniform on. The ears and noses are the same and his hairline matches the photo above. Also Fiehler was in the Stosstrupp as the original caption stated per JV above. Will post that when I am off work.

I agree with Max, I can't understand why Karl Fiehler was in civilian amongst NS in party uniform. He look like but it's not him. far right I thank it was Strasser.
Here a pic of Munchens Oberburgermeister Karl Fiehler from 1933 at the time 17 honorary stadtrat were appointed in the town council of Munich.

I think we will have to agree to differ!
