Thank you

SD members have blank collar patches, until SS-Standartenführer rank.

That woman is Irene Schellenberg: the second wife of Walter Schellenberg.

Irene Schellenberg's maiden name was Irene Grosse-Schönepauk (geb. 08.Feb.1919 in Fraustadt). They were married in 1940 and had one son and 2 daughters.

Schellenberg's first wife was Käthe Kortekamp (geb. 17.Jun.1907 in Bonn). It seems that Schellenberg and his first wife were only married 2 years before divorcing in 1940.

4th child was born in August '45. 5th - in 1950 (if i don't mistake). 10.10.1940 is the date of the second marriage.
Doerries in "Hitler's Intelligence Chief: Walter Schellenberg" says: ...legal proceedings ending the unhappy marriage finally closed with decision on December 31, 1939".

Emmmm the born date of 5th child seems a little strange, he supposed to be at jail at that time?
