Rare footage of "Prinz Eugen" division:
(officer at 0:22 - 0:24 might be Stubaf. Künstler, divisional communications commander; I haven't seen a photo of him, so can't claim it)

Zivio,

It's such a typical portrait of the war in YU, which we've seen so many times in our (postwar) movies, but unfortunately so rarely in original footage...
Cheers, buddy!

PS
My favorite part is the horse riding in the woods, you don't see much of that even in photos, and it's also characteristic for the people of the region where most of PE men came from (it actually still is).

Re: SS-Division "Prinz Eugen" photos
SS-Sturmbannführer Hans Feierlein, the V (Divisionsingenieur) on the divisional staff. He was born in 1904 in Munich, so it isn't too surprising to see that in 1923, at the age of 19, he took part in the Beer Hall Putsch there, and later got the Blood Order for it (based on Marc Rikmenspoel IDs)...

Marc is correct, that's indeed Feierlein; he was previously also identified here on AHF by myself http://forum.axishistory.com/viewtopic. ... 0#p1772085

Pheew, nice find, AlifRafikKhan! Stubaf. Eberhardt is on the right (last two pics).
...and he's also in these two (in red circle), from the same source
Cheers,
Ivan

Re: SS-Division "Prinz Eugen" photos
Could that be SS-Staf. Ernst Deutsch between Phleps and Eberhardt?

Re: SS-Division "Prinz Eugen" photos
He reminded me of Deutsch too. But it can't be him, since this is 1943 and he arrived in PE the following year (nearly a year after Phleps & Eberhardt left the division).Michael Miller wrote:Could that be SS-Staf. Ernst Deutsch between Phleps and Eberhardt?

Source: http://www.wehrmacht-awards.com/forums/ ... p?t=661377Just want to show this picture of (at this time) Untersturmführer Krombholz (in the center of the picture, later RK-winner) with men of his Kompanie. The Unterscharführer to the right of Krombholz is Sepp Kipper (who fell 1944).
