Dobro veče Ivane (good evening Ivan),

Great pictures from the "Nord division, esp. those photos showing the divisional "hagal" rune.
The director of the divisional music platoon was SS-Hstuf. August Nickel.

Best regards and stay healthy,
Frans

Goedenavond, Frans!

Sadly, the pictured bandleader's rank isn't visible, but it is obviously an officer, with a rank lower than Stubaf. Also, I don't know when exactly the photos were taken, nor whether the "Nord" band had more than one bandleader. But it is most probably Nickel, who did wear glasses.

Cheers,
Ivan
