        Thank you Petrus for the links and photo,very much appreciate it.Its difficult to tell if the officer in the background is Leutnant Schwinkendorf but there's certainly a resemblance .The awards appear to fit, Demjansk schild, EK1 ,silver infantry assault badge & wound badge but can't make a close combat clasp or DKIG in the photo however these may have been awarded after Axmen visited the unit.The DKIG was awarded December 1944.
