    Skorzeny at the Bendlerblock, July 21st, 1944

    Does anyone have any other pics of Skorzeny (or events in Berlin on the 20th and 21st of July? Who is the Army officer with Skorzeny?

    July 21st, 1944--the SS has taken over. Can't tell if that is Skorzeny shaking hands in front of the Mercedes:

      Not sure if this will help but the top photo is in a book called Hitler's Irishmen by Terence O'Reilly, it is captioned :

      " 21 July 1944, Skorzeny walking through the inner coutryard of the German Army headquarters at Bendlerstrasse, where Colonel von Stauffenburg had been put to death the previous night. The Waffen-SS troops in the background are almost certainly members of the SS-Jager Battalion 502 (bundesarchiv bild 146-1972-109-18A) "

        In his biography „Meine Kommandounternehmen“ Skorzeny tells some names of persons who were there in the Bendlerblock with him: Adrian von Fölkersam, Hauptmann Karl ****er, Oberjunker Ostafel, and Major Remer.
        But the photo is not sharp enough to identify the requested person.

        „Es war wohl gegen 19 Uhr. Telefonisch wies ich Fölkersam an, sofort die 1. Kompanie unter Befehl von Hauptmann ****er in die Berkaerstraße marschieren zu lassen. Fölkersam selbst und Oberjunker Ostafel sollten schnellstens zu mir kommen, was sie in einer Rekordzeit schafften. Fölkersam blieb in der Berkaerstraße, und ich fuhr mit Ostafel zu einem »Streifzug« durch das Regierungsviertel. Alles war ruhig.
        […]
        Ich wurde vom FHQu angerufen – wahrscheinlich auf Initiative von Reichsmarschall Göring. Ich erhielt den Befehl, »mit meinen gesamten Truppen« sofort zur Bendlerstraße zu rücken, um dort das Wachbataillon der Division Großdeutschland, das von dem schon anwesenden Major Remer kommandiert wurde, zu unterstützen. Ich wies darauf hin, daß ich in der Berkaerstraße derzeit nur eine Kompanie hatte. Ich würde mit dieser zur Bendlerstraße marschieren.“

            I had thought of mr ****er, but was not sure this was the same guy.
