    Help with RK winners and Generals!

    I have several RK and Generals photos that I do not have identified. Any help would be appreciated.

    First one shows a Division Commander - 1942.

    General #2. A second photo of the man in the center shows him in a car with a pennant for a Panzer Korps Commander.

            #6. This looks like a Major or a Col.

              Last one. I tried to compare this with several other photos. It is a hard one, but perhaps this is Willi Unger?

                  Hi!
                  These are my candidates:
                  Pic#1 : General der Infanterie Hans Jordan.
                  Pic#2 : Generaloberst Adolf Strauss.
                  Pic#3 : General der Panzertruppen Friedrich Kirchner.

                  Best regards.

                    Esteban,

                    Thanks for the suggestions! I will have to make closer examination!

                      Hello,
                      I think General 1 is actually Gen.d.Pan. Karl Decker & General 2 is Gen.d.Inf. Wilhelm Ulex.

                        Gareth,

                        Thanks for you help. The reverse of #1 is attached. It indicates that it is the Division Commander - 1942.

                        Decker took command of the 5th Panzer Division in 1943.

                        Hans Jordan was commander of the 7th Infantry Division in 1942, so this is a possibility, although I have not been able to find a pic of Jordan or much about the 7th. I tried Google, Feldgrau, Lexicon and AHF.

                        Two of the three photos have this on the reverse, written in opposite corners:

                          Perhaps this will help someone make another stab at it.

                          This is the reverse of the third photo. Not much, but maybe enough...

                            Hello,
                            Running the risk of self-advertising, you could have tried Axis Biographical Research. See attached images of both Decker & Jordan. Also attached is Wilhelm Ulex;


                            Wilhelm Ulex



                            Karl Decker


                            Hans Jordan

                            All from Axis Biographical Research.
