Hello Miocid
Maybe I am wrong but in the photo above the identified Besch seems to have the Dt. Kreuz i. Gold. If so, it can´t be Besch as Besch was not awarded with it. Besides the identified Besch above looks much older than the Besch in his original photo as General, and finally the original Besch is completely bald whilst the one above seems to have very short white hair.
Obviously I don´t discard the possibility that the one above is Besch, but............Your opinion ?

Your point about the DKiG is a good one; but if he is not BESCH , who is him?

And besides Besch did not receive the EK 1. Klasse during the Great War.
