    Help naming unknown Officer(s)

    I have been sorting through some photos I had saved some time ago. A few unfortunately are not named.

    Does anyone know who this General is?

    Thank you
    Pierce

              The middle one (monocle) is Otto Tiemann.

                Many thanks John.


                Would anyone like to have a guess at No.1?

                  No.1 still a mystery.

                    Walter Gorn?

                    Hi!
                    I`m not sure, but could it be Oberst Walter Gorn ( he commanded Inf div 710 in the end of the war, 1944/45)

                      Unfortunately no, the awards do not match up.

                        It's Walter Gorn...absolutly ...for sure !!

                        It IS Walter Gorn...NO doubt.

                          Sorry, but there is no way it could be Gorn. Gorn was awarded the Ritterkreuz and the Deutsches Kreuz in Gold as a Major, the Eichenlaub as an Oberstleutnant, and the Schwertern as an Oberst. This General is wearing none of these, which is inconceivable.

                          Best regards,

                          VJK
