two tough ones to identify

[weinsoldner]

Here are two more unidentified KC holders. They are probably not easy because the photos aren't the best as is the position of one of the KC-holders.

I would say that...

1. The man in the center of the first photo is Georg Lindemann
2. In the second photo he looks like Karl-Wilhelm Specht

No2 was Specht.

I had posted the same series at the "other" site. I believe Vienna identified him as Walther Krause, and I do agree it was Krause.

And of course it was Lindemann.

Hi,

Picture 1. I would say that...behind Generaloberst Lindemann he looks like General der Infanterie Walther Fischer von Weikerstahl.

Jaime.

Actually it was Miocid that identified the RKT as Krause. The officer next to the RKT looked like he had the Demjansk shield on his sleeve. (So did a few of the officers walking up to congratulate the RKT in other photos of the same series ). The Demjansk sheild was worn after 25.04.43. Fischer von Weikersthal won his RK much earlier on 06.08.41

So let me see if I have this straight. The man in the middle with the goggles is Lindemann and the man behind him wearing th KC on a long ribbon is still not identified????
