Who are these officers? (source: http://www.Panzer-Archiv.de - Forum)

...and these NCOs? (source: internet)

...this Panzer-commander, I believe RKT? (source: cover for one "Kölnische Illustrierte Zeitung")

...and these two? (source: Francesco, member of WH Awards Forum)

Thanks,
Ivan

Schümers!
I knew I've seen that smile before,
but there was no way I could remember.

Thanks,
Ivan

The NCO with RK is Gustav Schreiber from Germania.

Thanks, Juha.
Any ideas who his wounded comrade could be?

Cheers,
Ivan

Btw, I believe that Panzer commander is an SS-Obersturmführer,
and his tank is most probbably Panzer IV.

Hermann Weiser indeed. Here he is in a photo with Gustav Knittel. Could be the same timeframe, Bretteville-sur-Laize 1942...

Exellent, Tim!
(specially for Karl Kloskowski id.)

Thank you - everyone.

Bye,
Ivan

Wait a minute:
Wisch with Weiser, or Diefenthal?

Man in second photo is Diefenthal.
Compare details (like decorations etc) with first photo.
I think it is the same man.

Weiser, K.Meyer and...?

Apart from Jochen Peiper and Ustuf. Leidreiter, who are the others in this pic? (Photo from Lehmann/Tiemann - Die Leibstandarte Bd. III)

...and another one:
this one was already posted in Axis Biographical Research, RKT id. thread (with no result).

Could he be SS-Obersturmführer Hermann Otto Adolf Dahlke?
