12th SS "HJ" Identification Assistance...

[Hundestaffel]

I would very much appreciate if anyone could make a positive ID on any / all of the three SS members seen below. All three were close associates of Fritz Witt and served with Witt in the 12th SS "HJ", but at the moment I am having trouble positively confirming IDs in regards to these fellows.

Many Thankx....

Probably an SS-Standartenoberjunker (officer candidate) as his collar tabs are also piped and he would be wearing SS Hauptscharführer straps.

Have some more information to where they come from or which units? Have full photographs?

Unfortunately, my pursuit for information on these fellows has ended as the photos in question were / are post-war copies....

The only man I was able to find who was an Ustuf in the stab of the division at the time of Fritz Witt was Ustuf Harro Lubbe.
There's a photo of Lubbe for a comparison?
