    LAH Sturmbannfuehrer

    Need help identifying this LAH Sturmbannfuehrer with Hitler. Other identifications of time and place as well as the officer in background also appreciated.

              I don't know the Sturmbannführer, but it's not Franz Staudegger - he was an NCO and officer candidate in 13./SS-Pz.Regt. 1, later s. SS-Pz.Abt. 101/501.

                If you are talking about Heinz Harmel, the Swords-holder, he is not in this photo!

                  Harmel is the guy that answered the question!

                      Hello,

                      The SS-Sturmbannfuhrer in the photo believe is Bruno Gesche, fourth Kdr. of the SS-Begleitkommando. He was a recipient of the Golden Party Badge and that would also explain his Adolf Hitler cufftitle.

                      Best,

                      James
