[Heeresspringer]

I have this nice picture of Wolf after the Narvik mission on a german Zerstörer on the way back home.

In the picture you can also see Lt Büttner and OLt Tannert ...

Was waiting for you to post that one Stefan, a real beauty

Could this be Blücher with Obfw. Möller overseeing training for their next operation ?

Shaun (long time and all that, I hope that you are doing well these days)

Those are great photographs, especially the final image of of Oblt. Wolfgang von Blücher, particularly poignant as to what would unfold only a matter of hours later.

When this virus madness is over, Kreta is definatly on my list of places to visit (with Yannis book of course!).

Yes it is.
I think that I have the original picture in my collection. The nickname of Obfw. Möller was "The baby" because he was a huge man.
Best wishes

In 6 years after this photo was taken no one of these three officers would be alive. Sad to see this twist of fate.

Thanks for posting Shaun - I remember this one well Do you think the split image was to add the RK award to an earlier image or just a repair?
