Unknown LAH - German Cross in Gold recipient

[markus]

I hav posted this here, since I believe it will get a little more attention here from the more W-SS focussed members.

Can anyone help me with the identity of the pictured German Cross recipient of the Leibstandarte?

Photo must have been taken slightly before the invasion in Normandy 1944.

Could it be Kurt Meyer in the early days?? (before 21 june 1943 when he became standartenführer??)

where's his kc ?

[John Pic]

thats not Meyer.

[HouweTrouwe]

Certainly not Panzer Meyer. I identify (/think) him as Max Hansen.

I do not think it is Hansen, can you post the whole picture, it helps to see where they were and who he was with to figure out who it is.

[Mark C. Yerger]

it's not Hansen

possible answer

there is a well known photo of AH, Wunsche, Baltasar Woll and another officer, Hitler with the magnifying glass, that fourth officer whose name is Pfeiffer I believe(not Peiper or Potscke) something similar to that bears a resemblance to this officer.

You can see him in Thomas Fischers Book SOLDIERS of the LAH on site 305,
