You are right, it is more likely Witzleben, not Jodl.Mark Costa wrote:Its NOT Jodl but FM Witzleben.
(Takes another look on picture...) You are right (again) that Dietrich usually wore SS uniform and this guy doesn't wear...but he really looks like Dietrich...Mark Costa wrote:It is definately NOT Dietrich between Witzleben and Keitel. Dietrich was not in the Army but a Reichsleiter and usually wore SS Generals uniform.
between himmler and Keitel...looks like rommel
and between broman and Heydrich looks likes guderian
sorry im new at this, but am i anywhere close?
and where was this taken and when? i would also agree that it looks like a plan or presentation of a strategy, either for borbarossa or perhaps france...

I shoul think the photograph was taken during a visit to the front during the campaign in Poland. The "Sam Browne" belt as worn by some of the officers was discontinued after September 1939. Von Witzleben still appears to wear the two pips of a General der Infanterie. He was not promoted Generaloberst until November 1939.

Glenn --- The photo was definately taken in either 1938 or early 1939, Certainly before September 1, 1939.
Hitler is wearing his Brown visor cap with cockade and wreath. This cap with the wreath was created in May 1938 for his state visit to Italy and he stopped wearing it on August 31, 1939. After that day he never wore it again. So this is the time frame of this photo.
