I suppose the Austrian generals are lined up after rank.

from right:
GM Ing. Ernst Hammer (with EK 1)
GM Adalbert von Schmidt (shaking hands with v. Bock)
missing GM Kurt Zborzil (not residing in Vienna)
GM Dr. Alfred Ritter von Hubicki
GM Franz Böhme (with EK1)
GM Valentin Feurstein (leaning back - just displaying his mustache)
GM Friedrich Materna
??
GM Alexander Löhr
?? (GM Karl Graser would have been senior to Löhr but I would not recognize him)
Fmlt. Johann Kubena (looking into the camera)

I suppose the Austrian generals are lined up after rank.

Perhaps there are more photos of the same event (March 17th in Vienna).
DNB communiqué lists these names:
Kubena, Leitner, Haselmayr, Stümpfl, Hubitzki, Materna, Böhme, Hickmann, Hammer, Schmidt, Glasner, Wittas, Bornemann, Moro, Löhr.

They did not mention Feurstein for some reason ?

Stümpfl was senior to Löhr. So he could be the general between Kubena and Löhr with his front to the camera. Haselmayr can be ruled out for that person, because he owned EK1 and would have been wearing it.

The general only showing his thick mustache would correctly standing (following his rank) Feurstein. Moro had a similar mustache too, but he was promoted in 1937 after Adalbert Schmidt and Ernst Hammer. He would have been situated left of Hammer and not on the picture.

If you could find a similar pic, it would be very helpful.
