Thank you Gareth, never thought of that being Remer. Jürgen, yes, Boege...but the guy next to Boege.

I have to say even though Remer was kmdr of FBD, his ribbon bar was much shorter than that of Musculus's. The two pics I have of Musculus had the exact ribbon bar. The picture I posted comes from an Uffz album being auctioned --he belonged to the Wach Komp FhrHptQ and the "div kmdr" picture was included. I guess it was the wrong picture.

Cheers
Freiherr

Two pics from http://www.militariaweb.com
Who's the LW officer?
The second one is said to be Günther Hochgratz but I wrote 'Hochgratz' on the sear facility of http://www.das-ritterkreuz.de and no data was given? Maybe a spelling error? Can anybody give me any info about this man?
Best,

FANGIO
