Who is this RK Trager?

[RD Rygaard]

Original photo (approx.9x7in.) on wartime "Agfa~Brovira" paper. Photographers stamp to lower left corner, unreadable due to trimming to fit in frame Sadly, orig. diamond shaped frame has been separated from the photo but it did have a black "death ribbon" in lower right corner w/ silver painted SS runes. (frame & ribbon are here somewhere, it became separated when I moved 6 yrs. ago ) I seem to recall this RKT was killed by partisans in 1944. Maybe Mark can chime in here, would really like to identify and research! Best regards, Richard
