Re: Knight's Cross Holders Identification
The man to the right is wearing a Destroyer Badge and a Minesweeper Badge. The groom appears to be wearing a Narvik Shield. Is the RKT a Destroyer man?

Re: Knight's Cross Holders Identification
mmmm... the first man to the RKT's right is also wearing a Minesweeper Badge. Unfortunately we can´t see which badge the RKT is wearing. Maybe also a Minesweeper Badge or a Destroyer Badge. The site where I took the pic from is in russian so I can`t add any further info about it. He doesn't seem to wear the Narvik Shield.
Who could he be?

The central officer is the later General Max Schrank. Here is another photo from the same ceremony, also from e-bay. I hope it helps the identification.

Could someone identify this unknown Luftwaffe NCO Rkt and DKiG recipient? I take it he is posing with his crew. All are NCO's.
