Hi Daniel
The first one seems to be HAns Georg Romeike. I would need to check that this evening to be definitively sure. The only doubt I have is that the unknow recipient is shown wearing a GAB while Romeike was awarded the KC as a member of a Gre.Rgt.
Anyway, Romeike is a holder of the TDB (1 kill) and I have a postcard (not swith me at the time, I am writing) which shows him with a NKS and a Felmütze a.A. like this unknown recipient.
Will keep you informed
Regards
Denis

Hi Denis, thanks for trying to help out. It's really a mystery. You are correct in that none of them are on the list (atleast I don't think so). Assmann or Arndt seems probable, I would go for Assmann but I'm not quite sure since I haven't been able to find a good reference photo of Assmann and Arndt.
Best regards/ Daniel

Hi again Daniel
I am not sure about Arndt. As this latter one was awarded the Eichenlaub, it would be interesting to see a photos of him wearing the OL. He would consequently have to wear the TDB. Does anybody have such a photo to provide ?

Hi Kocjo,
Your EL winner looks like GenLt Kurt Juergen Freiherr von Luetzow. Attached photos are from, respectively, the standard one on the web, VJK and Akira Takiguchi. Paal was the one who identified VJK's pic.
