Recent Photos to share!

[Mark Mac]

Over the past two months or so, I have aquired some very nice (IMO) photos. Just thought I would share some of them with "The Board"! Most of these were purchase from Ebay. There was a recent discussion about Ebay photos. I have found about 5 sellers that consistantly list excellent photos. I try to stick with them and have had some good luck after talking to them about other photos.

There are some more on the way and I will post them as they arrive. I also have some questions about the identity of some of the Generals and RK holders.

Enjoy!

First up is General Feldmarschal Erich von Manstein

General Feldmarschal Albert Kesselring

I may be mistaken, but this looks like Heinz Guderian to me. Does anyone know if this is correct or know who else it might be?

Here is a closeup.

Generalmajor Hans-Valentin Hube. You can see that his left arm is a prosthesis of some sort.

Still looking for the identity of this General and/or his staff. I really like the sharp clear image on this one.

Now for some RK holders.

The first I originally believed was a post war signed photo. I put it under the black light and no glow. I am not sure now. Can anyone comment on this?

Obergefreiter Otto Riess - GR 55

Correction Riehs. Thanks Phil!

Otto Riehs won the RK while in the 17th Infantry Division. In September 1943 he destroyed 10 enemy tanks in approximately 12 minutes! He was the gun commander for a 7.5 mm PAK crew.

Next are some RK holders that I have not identified. Any help on the next three photos is greatly appreciated!

Here is a Panzerjager from Panzerjäger-Abteilung 4, part of the 14th Panzer Division. 14th Panzer Division was encircled and destroyed at Stalingrad. Not a very bright prospect for this mans future

Another enlistedman from the 73 Infantry Regiment, part of the 19th Panzer Division. This unit saw action throughout Russia.
