Who is this Ritterkreuzträger?
Any clues or suggestions?
Just a suggestion. Could it be Gen.Lt. Wilhelm Thomas?
I'm missing his ribbon bar.

Regards,
Hugo.
No, it is not him. Merci, Hugo.

Firstly thanks to Hugo and Ingward. Your help and your knowledge is very much appreciated. Here are three more unknowns, The first one is named "Franz" and he attended a "Feierstunde" sitting beside Joseph Goebbels in the front row in April 1942 (s. reverse side). One additional info I have that "Franz" was killed later in the course of the war (France?). The second one is seen here on the occasion of the funeral of Herbert Bachnik. The last one should be a Flak officer.
Many thanks & KR

It should be Willi Pieper according to an ID earlier in this forum

Willi Pieper was born in 1912, and in the frame there is an image of a fairly young man.
