p.555, pic. A 1.jpg Foto 445 is indeed Hptm. Conrad Heuß. Correction, text to move from Foto 441 to foto 445.
p.562, pic. by Toten39 » 28 Aug 2014, 20:41, name is not just Luck, but Frhr. von Luck und Witten.
p.560, pics. Borcher-Hermann.jpg and Borchers Hermann 3.jpg are not Borchers, but SS-Stubaf. Franz Kleffner. See added photo's of my collection.
Regards, Hugo.

p.562, pic. unkowrkt.JPG cannot be Friedrich Bonnke. Comparing the ears (see attached enlargements) they are signifcantly different.
This is however Hptm. Walter ADOLPH, not Bonnke.

I have seen this image captioned as RKTs Heinz Strüning, Georg Christl & Rudolf Schoenert. No mention of whose funeral, though.

Purchased just recently. Any ideas regarding the identification of this early KC Hauptmann with Spanish Cross with Swords and no German Cross and the LW-Oberst wearing the KC and Iron Cross decoration of WWI (no German Cross as well which was introduced in the course of 1941).

Thanks & regards
