Any idea who these two guys are? Should be Normandy, British sector, first 10 days or so after D-Day.

Hello Niels,

The right one is Oberst Georg Scholze, Kdr. Pz.Gren.Lehr-Rgt. 901, and the left one possibly, Major Wilhelm Prinz von Schönburg-Waldenburg, Kdr. II./Pz.Lehr-Rgt. 130.

Cheers,

Charles
