Thanks Bill for the compliments. I, too, hope that these RK holders can be identified. It would be great to put a name to these photos. You have also posted some outstanding photos. Thanks for sharing them with us all.

Hi Todd,

that is definately Günther-Eberhardt Wisliceny, III./SS-PzGrenRgt "Deutschland".

Best regards/ Daniel

[Todd Gylsen]

Thanks Daniel!! I've had this photo for a while and had no idea who it was. Thanks again!!

[D. Löwenhamn]

No problem Todd, just happy to be of help. Wisliceny was one of the most highly decorated officers of the Waffen-SS. I wonder who it is he is saluting.

Best regards/ Daniel
