Hello Anil,

That is a great photo. I have never seen a Ritterkreuzträger in SA-Feldherrnhalle Uniform before.

Best,

James

Hello, docarchiv! Glad to see you again in this forum! :milwink:

General with glasses it's Friedrich - Wilhelm von Chappuis, another general it's Georg Lindemann. And RK holder who received his award, I am sure on the 99% it's Heinrich Kreipe.

Best wishes
Ruslan

Thank you very much, you are right, it is Kreipe!

I am not back, I was very busy and I know what a burnout is. So I just watched you from outside!

Kind words, thank you!

Dear Dieter,

I don't think so it's Bartel. Most likely Herbert Berger...?

It's Hans-Joachim Valet, Ritterkreuz as Recce Pilot, shot down and killed with Kampfgeschwader 51 in late 1944.
