It's the time of Ingo's pics obviously. Stumbled upon a second one which was identified previously by Terry.
Ernst Gürke

By chance I found a reference photo (Hoffmann card) [source: militaria321.com].
Viewing this Hoffmann pic I had doubts first. But the more I look, the eye-browes, the nose..
So, hopefully this is useful to rule out doubts and to have a 100% confirmation. And a nice pic ! :)

Best regards
Bernd
