    Second from the left is Fritz, I think to see Hans in the middle and hmm.. it could be Jochen on the complete right. Oh wait! I think to see Wolfgang on the third row.

    The unit is "1.Kompanie / Sanitäts-Ersatz-Abteilung 7", more on this unit:

    "Die Abteilung wurde am 6. Oktober 1939 in München, Wehrkreis VII, aufgestellt. Sie entstand aus der am 26. August 1939 aufgestellten Sanitäts-Ersatz-Kompanie 7 und unterstand direkt dem Korpsarzt vom Wehrkreis VII. Am 14. Oktober 1940 wurde die Abteilung nach Miesbach in Oberbayern im gleichen Wehrkreis VII verlegt. Am 10. April 1943 wurde die Abteilung zur Sanitäts-Ersatz- und Ausbildungs-Abteilung 7 umbenannt. Teile von ihr waren jetzt in Schliersee im gleichen Wehrkreis VII stationiert. "

        It's a recruits photo for his intake. The unit is 1st company, medical replacement battalion 7. A depot training unit responsible for training recruits to the medical corps. This battalion with have provided recruits to a number of medical field units from within the same military district (wehrkreis VII based in munich in this case)
