Hallo John,
I`m not sure about your choice. :wink:
On this pic the officer look like a Hauptmann with a pilot medal and no "Hermann Göring" Armband.
On the next pics showing Fitz with the Eichenlaub, the grade and the medals are totally different ( Nahkampfspange des Heeres in Silber (1943) ,Verwundetenabzeichen (1939) in gold 1942......) the Armband.

Any ideas regarding this unknown Luftwaffe officer (looks like Hauptmann) with KC and GC? The reverse side shows a dedication signed with his first name 'Wolfgang" and the remark "Silver Wedding Anniversary 1944". Thanks in advance & KR

If the inscription is correct, so @38 should be Werner Lösing.
