Hello Ingo,
Do u know anything more of him??
I've searched the internet but the only Hermann Eckhart I can find is a u-boat commander:
Hermann Eckhardt
Born on 15 Jun, 1916 in Aachen.
Crew 36. Kapitänleutnant (1 Mar, 1943)
Died on 11 Mar, 1943, North Atlantic.
Commands:
U-28, U-432
(uboat.net)
And I don't think that's one and the same...

The first picture showing RKT from the GD division would show in my opinion Hans Sachs (in Feldgrau) then Heinz Maaz (in black wrapper).
