Thanks Elwyn! You sure a wealth of information.

Excellent photos Todd and all of the others! I knew there were more out there!

[Elwyn]

Ooops, bit stuck with the presumably Brandenberg RKT. He looked rather old for a young Heerstruppe outfit like Brandenberg, especially when Kuehlwein was commander in about April to Dec 1944.. It looked like a KVKmS on his left breast pocket?

There was also a very un-decorated general behind Kuehlwein.
Cheers

Thanks to Harmel reminding me , can confirm #47 next to Guderian was his PzAOK2 IIb, later GenMj Otto Buesing. Buesing was a bit illusive. I have one other pic and he was standing side by side Guderian. He was much taller there. Here it threw me off as Buesing was standling a little behind him.

Cheers

Elwynn,

That is a suprise. A quick search shows Buesing as commander of Panzer Regt. 39 and awarded his RK on 11-21-42. He was later Generalmajor and killed in Russia on 3-8-44. The officer looks a little young in #47 for Buesing, but I know better than to second guess...

Thanks Again!

Looking in the GD book by Spaeter, it does indeed look like Kühlwein.

Attached is a larger image. The receipient is wearing an EK1 Spange and a WW I EK1. I am not sure what the bottom award is on his pocket.
