The three pics are from the RK-award ceremony for Lt. Erich Schmidt 9./JG 53.
3672_0.jpg - Mölders greeting the commander of III./JG 53 Hptm. Wolf-Dietrich Wilcke, still without RK.
3672_2.jpg - Mölders awarding Lt. Erich Schmidt, and Wilcke on the left, still without RK.
3672_1.jpg - Mölders talking to Schmidt at the beginning of the ceremony.
Regards,
Hugo.
