I think head 9 is Hans-Georg v. Charpentier, of W-SS Div. Florian Geyer. The full photo is of him mounted on a horse being congratulated by another mounted SS man on the award of his Knights Cross. I can't remember where I saw it.

Hi Kocjo,

My long shot guess is it's ObFwb Hans Hindelang, JgRgt, GD Div. Only thing that bothers me is he won his RK relatively early in Sept 40. And here he was instructing a HJ using the panzerfaust relatively late in the war. Does anyone know what happened to Hindelang?

That pic of GD RK winner is also in Holzträger-In Raging Inferno book and caption says that pic is taken in 44.

So he is Hindelang or:

Wilhelm Czorny
Hans Klemm
Willi Kessel
Fritz Plickat
Hans Roger
Hans Sachs
Wilhelm Wegner

Who is this?

Post by John Toner » 06 Nov 2003 13:17

Can anyone identify this RK holder. The photo was captioned Rolf Tittel, but Tittel was an NCO, while this man is obviously an officer

Thanks in advance.
