Who can identify this General, awarded with "Pour le merite". Source http://www.militaria321.com

Could it be OTTO LANCELLE ?

Hi!
The picture posted by Freiherr on Sept. 18 I think it shows Gen.d.Pz.Tr. Dietrich von SAUCKEN standing on the left side. So far I´ve not been able to identify the general on the right side.
Cheers.

Hello to all :D; just a little question: any chance of getting the name of the SS Officer speaking with Generaloberst Hoeppner? It was during Barbarossa, so this guy was with the SS Totenkopf I guess. TIA. Regards. Raúl M 8-).

I´d appreciate some help to identify the first Heer General on the left on the attached picture downloaded from the NAFA archives.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Miocid,

This is a much better quality pic than what we had previosuly seen. The first Heer general on the left I agree that it was Bamler, with DKiG already at this time ( I had thought it was Wintergerst but this shows it wasn't ). Then Dittmar and Tittel. Obviously we also see Hamjanz.

On the extreme right must be v Falkenhorst. Two down could be Ciliax.

Cheers
Freiherr

Freiherr,

Thanks so much for your wonderful ID about Hansen, Speidel and Bassenge. I think you are right about the pic of Speidel. As you said the ABR/Biblio pic did no justice to this man. Here you have another....Fahrmbacher or Sinnhuber??? with Rommel in the Atlantikwall.

Regards,

Gregg.

It looks that I was not clear enough. On the picture I posted there are three Heer generala seated on the first row. Of these three generals, the one on the left is the one I don´t kow his identity. By the way, he is a RKT. Next to him is BAMLER (no doubt about it) and next is TITTEL (100% certain).
I hope it is clear now.

Hi,

I would say that the general sitting on the right should be Dollmann. Would fit as OB 7th Army under Rommel.

Regards

Christian
