Hi, I am new on this site. I noticed on Historical-media.com, the photo album of Vicktor Bauer EL107 for sale. There is a photo of him and Erwin Clausen EL106 getting Oak leaves from A.Hitler. The location appears to be the Ukraine Headquarters of Winnitsa judging from the drapes and knotty wood walls. A rare photo. One that you only find in a recipiant's photo album. It is item #1 of the existing inventory. I do not know how to post photos or I would put it up.

Sorry Dieter but this picture was take for:
11/07/ 1944, Berlin)
Awards bestowed by Göring
LW ceremony :
- Hptm. Franz Kieslich (619. EL)
- Hptm. Dieter Lukesch (620. EL)
- Lt. Walter Schuck (616. EL)
And Udet was death in November 1941.

So who are the peoples in the back?
Doesn`t look like Lukesch and Schuck, maybe the one at right is von der Heydte?

I just finished reading "Grey Wolf, Grey Sea" by E.B. Gasaway, the story of the U-124 and Johann Mohr (EL 177). He related- before he was killed- that he was flown from Lorient to Wehrwolf in the Ukraine on February 13, 1943 and received the Oakleaves there spending four hours with Hitler, apparently with no other recepients present. Do any of the members here have a photo of that ceremony that they could post? I checked with the National Archives in Maryland, USA which held the Hoffmann photo archives and they could not find it. Thank you.

Bernd has tried to help me send photos over the computer. I am trying to send two photos never seen on this site. The first I will send is from left Friedrich Karl Muller, Wlolfgang Tonne, Hans Beiswenger, and Wilhelm Crinius receiving Oak Leaves at Vinnista in the Ukraine between October 4 and October 30, 1942 8O 8O . It is from my personal collection.

The second photo is of Carl Emmerman and Frederich Kemnade receiving Oak leaves in Ratsenburg, East Prussia. Although the awards are from May and July of 1943, Kemnade wrote that they did not actually go to the East Prussia Headquarters until December, 1943. This photo is from the book "War in Southern Oceans" by Turner and Gordon-Cummings. Copywrite 1961.
If the photos do not arrive in the next hour, you will know that I failed to follow Bernd's instructions correctly. I do not know what the quality of the transfers will be.
