Hello, Mr. Vermeer,

That is an informal portrait shot of Generaloberst Karl Koller, Chief of the Luftwaffe General Staff.

Hope this helps.

Hello, again, Mr. Vermeer,

Not sure that my first note to you was posted.

The Ofw. in your photograph with the Knight's Cross is Ofw. Albrecht Schnitger. He was KIA on 13 Mar 1943 near Rzhev.

Hope this helps.

Take care.

Terry
