The tall Oberst standing immediately to the right of Guderian (from our perspective) reminds me very much of Edgar Feuchtinger. His double ribbon bars, his EKI with spange and the other awards he wore near the EKI and just the peculiar way he stood. ( Remember all those inspection pics he had with Rommel jsut before D-day?) Feuchtinger was charged with the rebuilding of the 21st Pz Div in France and promoted to GenMj on 01.08.43. If this was Feuchtinger, then it was taken before 01.08.43. Guderian was of course Inspector of PzTroopsfreiherr wrote:Who are the two RKT in this series of pictures with Guderian?
