I'm preparing several hundred amazing original photos of members of the LAH, Das Reich etc. for auction on eBay. Michael Miller and Richard Maxwell were kindly helping me, but their time is otherwise occupied right now. As I want to get these items listed fairly soon, I would like to enlist the help of other forum members. I can offer nothing except my gratitude! So please, if you see anyone you know, call out. Some are really obvious, some have been tentatively identified, but there are many more. I'll start posting them up in batches. Please note each one is annotated / copyrighted for obvious reasons.
Some have notes on the rear. In that case I'd like to know if they are people of significance. A lot of the time, I can't read the German writing well enough to translate it, in which case I'd appreciate assistance also. I'd also like to know if any of these photos can be accurately dated.
So first up, a few from my Das Reich photo collection. We have an SS-Uscha. Shultz (top) and SS-Uscha. Gourke


next up are two shots of Gen. von Vietinghoff - in what context? What relation to Das Reich?


unknown? The rear of this photo is heavily annotated, but my German is too rusty to make it out...


Gen.Oberst Guderian and SS-Obersturmbannführer Otto Kumm - again, not sure of the timeframe or context. Perhaps someone can help?


SS-Uscha Gourke & SS-Uscha Hahn, Das Reich - anyone important?


several named individuals in this Das Reich group shot...are they anyone of significance please?


SS-Oberstgruppenführer Paul Hausser (is he an Oberstgruppenführer here though?)



Hausser and SS-Obergruppenführer Wilhelm Bittrich (I think - am I reading the inscription right?)
