Unknown Luftwaffe General and unknown funeral.

[Ron C.]

I picked these up from the German trash on bulk trash day when I was with the Office of the SJA, HQ 8th ID from 1973 to 1976. I have no idea who they are, because I can't read the old style German writing.

Thank you Gerdan. I tried looking up General Haehnelt with little luck, except on the web I did see his first name was Wilhelm.

I think the first pic is General der Flieger Wilhelm Haenelt:

and the other one as I told Gen. Herman von der Lieth - Thomsen
