Hello guys!
I need some help in identifying the man who was standing next to Hitler and reading document with him. Is this guy Dr.Otto Dietrich? I know he was a prussian but now it seems like he is wearing a pair of traditional Bavarian shorts.

Besides, I’d like to know were can I find this picture in higher quality.

Thanks a lot! :)

Yes, it is Dr. Otto Dietrich.

I have the same photo but the quality of it is not very sharp.

Glad I could help. Sure, I have some info for the photo.

The photo of Hitler, Dietrich and company was taken back In May 1939 at the Terrace of Berghof. (So Dr. Dietrich wears the shorts because they are in Bavaria, despite himself being a Prussian).

Also In the Photo are Hitler's personal Valet: SS-Gruppenführer Julius Schaub.

I hope this helped.

To complete the staff, there is also Goebbels, general Rudolf Schmundt and Reichsleiter Philipp Bouhler. Well, I know nothing about the dress code at the Berghof but it seems that Frau Bouhler didn´t wear a bra during this visit....

Yes, I thought so too about Helene Bouhler's attire. Seemingly the dress code doesn't seem to have been very strict. Altough Herr Schaub was In full civil-SS attire.

It is Julius Schaub not Schenck -- neither Krause nor Darges are in this photo.

Yes Mark it is Schaub. Corrected. According to the links information about this photo Darges should be among the Staff, but he became an Adjutant for Hitler In March 1943.
