Page 1649, post 24727 - Walter Jost
To me it is not him. The face is very familiar to me and I have another guess in mind. Thanks so much!
Do you want to know my guess, Ingward?
If the identity is between Hermann Kress and Wilhelm Jost, I think is Jost. Interenting to note the Verwundetenabzeichen in the portrait of the unknow.
Regards to all.

To be honest, I think it's neither of the two candidates (Walter Jost and Hermann Kress).
The unknown RKT had hair, and both Jost and Kress were completely bald (at the top at least).
But, if I had to choose one, I would go with Jost.
Thank you, boys.
I am still thinking that it is Hermann Kress.
