I do not think that the general identified as HILPERT be him.
The other general resembles a lot to the one shown in page 57 of this thread and identified as General der Infanterie Alfred BOEHM-TETTELBACH.

From left: Maj. Wilhelm Deyhle, Gen. Alfred Jodl, Hitler, Field Marshal Wilhelm Keitel, Admiral Erich Raeder.
I don't think it's Keitel. But who is he? Brauchitsch?

Hi,
Until today, I identify the general. His characteristic habit was smoking cigars. Picture from a trip to the eastern front, around 1940 in Poland.
May be able to also identify the men accompanying him?

For help with Thank you in advance.

Greetings

EDIT:
I found the answer - Heinz Hellmich :milsmile:

Hello,

Big puzzle from funeral ceremony of Generalmajor Fritz Löb on 25.06.1940., most persons very familiar, but I recognized only Todt, Milch and Sperrle in first row... :oops:

First row: 2L is Gen. d. Flg. Wilhelm Wimmer, 3L looks a little like Mooyer
Second row: 1L is most probably Hermann von Hanneken, 2L Gen. der Kav. Franz Fhr. von Dalwigk zu Lichtenfels, 3L is Ernst Seifert

Löb died of an accident while Kmdr LGKmdo Belgien Nordfrankreich on 22.06.40.

First row 2L was Gen d Fl Wilhelm Wimmer his eventual successor (Pflugbeil briefly held that post before Wimmer).
First row 2R for sure was not Sperrle.

First row 3L looks a little like Mooyer who was in charge of training affairs. Löb's speciality was Militärverwaltung. It's a pity that LW GenInt were mostly absent with identified pictures. I tried all the Heer OFK's in France as well but so far no success.

Thanks for your help, Elwyn! Really "hard nut".

First general from left in the second row, looks like Walther Fischer von Weikersthal, he was C.d.G. of the 7. Armee. What do you think?

Best wishes

Hi Ruslan,it does look like him.I would also say 2nd from left second row Gen. der Kav. Franz Fhr. von Dalwigk zu Lichtenfels as KG WK III Berlin, as Fritz Löb was born in Berlin,and looks like buried there.
