Yest it's definitely looks like him, but he still eearing his Ritterkreuz? I thought it was taken from him because he killed his friend?

March 21, 1944. During one of many counterattacks, Rammelt is killed leading his men near the Continental Hotel. This photo show his body and the exact spot where he was shot in the head by New Zealander fire.

That Cassino photo is shown in a lot of books (larger version second photo-Purnell's History of the Second World War) but always cropped and doesn't shown Rammelt's body.

Hauptmann Walter Kiess, Oberst Gustav Wilkie(Luftwaffe transport), Oberst Eugen Meindl, General der Flieger Kurt Student, Major Walter Koch, Stenzler and Hauptmann Scherber
Scherber(non RKT) was killed at Crete so this photo must be dated from 1940.

I'm sorry if this has been posted before, but I really forgot the name of Ritterkreuzträger (both of them?)...
