            Second general looks like v Chappius. Clearly it was not Hoth.

            First general, there are 4 Reinhardts: you can rule out Geog Hans, Walter or Fritz. These are fairly well known. Never saw Hellmuth before and he had a Deutsche Kreuz in Silver, but a GenMj not GenObst.

            Cheers

              v Chappius - Friedrich-Wilhelm von Chappius? Kommandeur 15 Infanteriedivision.

              Elwyn, do you have photos v. Chappius?

                  Sorry to be patronizing but if you know enough about stock pics in general, the few "standard pics" really distort your perception of what a general should or should not look like.

                  Case in point, Cloessner. Man did not look like stock (bad) pic at all.

                  Either here or at AHF, search for v Chappius and you might reserve rushing to your judgement. I am not sure either. But he definitely looks somewhat like v Chappius. Just not this pic!! I PM'ed already the Tannenberg Hindenberg memorial pic already!!

                  Cheers
