Hi Graveland

Are you sure about Morzik? It doesn't look very like him.

John
Hi John,

Do you think he could be another man? Who you're thinking about?

Gregg
Hi Gregg
I don't recognise the man in the photo, but images of Morzik show a different face. Also, Morzik had a 1939 spang to the EK II.

John
Hello John and Gregg,
Looking to his face I'm pretty sure it is Gen.Maj. Eugen Meindl. But why is he wearing a jacket with the rank of an Obst. and without a LW-eagle? (Page 911, pic.@3, by mkrivchenko » 29 Aug 2017, 06:39)

Sorry, Hugo, I am not agree with you this time. To me, it is NOT Meindl.
Cheers, Gregg

Knight's Cross Holder's identification wanted

Post by MartinP » 12 Apr 2018, 22:26

The attached photo shows a Knight's Cross Holder of the Mountain Troops. It was almost certainly taken in the Kuban or the Crimea in early 1943 and I wonder if anyone can tell me who he is, please.
