Hallo Sergei,

for Schnaufer: http://www.das-ritterkreuz.de/index_sea ... wert1=5730

and (sorry, only in German): http://www.lexikon-der-wehrmacht.de/Per ... uferHW.htm

For Rumpelhardt: http://www.das-ritterkreuz.de/index_sea ... wert1=5384

On ritterkreuztraeger-1939-45.de you can only find 829 bio's of KC holders, these two are not there!!!

Could the KC + EL holder on page 56 posted by bake and called "Unknown EL 1944.jpg"
be Heinrich Hogrebe!?
