A supplement to this, since I finally managed to do the format conversion of my database pics..Bernd R wrote: [...]
Willi Hägele , page 138 / index - this is him for sure. There is a similar photo without visor cap he usually signed. (I know of)
Whereas on the photo in question (page 197) : left : Michael Fischer - right : ?? - it is not him on the right. Left side it is Michael Fischer for sure.

Best regards
Bernd

Attached is the Willi Hägele portrait I meant (signature cut off at the bottom of this version) [source: a personal collection]
And, I like the tradition performed by our colleague and friend Phil Nix to just post some nice and interesting photos from time to time. Therefore, a second photo attached shows Max Sachsenheimer wearing the Jäger cap badge. [source on pic]

Re: Knight's Cross Holders Identification
Thanks! After looking them up one by one, it's surprising to me that all of the awardees pictured were from the Fallschirmjäger arm. I was assuming most, if not all of them, got to be pilots or aircrew of the Luftwaffe Proper.chris44 wrote:HiPanzerspitze wrote:Bumpty bump.Panzerspitze wrote:Can anyone identify all the Luftwaffe Ritterkreuzträger in this video?
