Any idea who these two could be?

Looks like Model (here as Generaloberst) pointing to the map...

And just a guess, but perhaps Walther von Seydlitz-Kurzbach at left...

Thanks Mike!

It was supposed to be during Zitadelle, but I don't trust the captions on internet pages which cease to exist after a short time...

*EDIT*

Thank you for both indentifications!

best regards,
Miha / Nibelung

Well if it WAS taken during Zitadelle, that obviously rules out von Seydlitz-Kurzbach.

I agree with bake, Model and von Kluge. I have a book (in spanish) with that same picture.

Knowledgeable gentlemen,

any idea about this RKT? Caption says it was taken in Albania after Italian surrender,the men on the right are aparently Albanians in Italian uniforms. Is he a GebJäger? (source: Piekalkiewicz,"Der Kampf auf dem Balkan 1940-1945",München 1985)

Thanks,

Hello VJK,

I think the following men could it be:

- Erich Abraham
- Kurt von der Chevallerie
- Traugott Herr

Many thanks Ingo, I believe it is indeed Erich Abraham.
