I did at one time have some materials on the members of the units shown. Can someone please ID the RK winner and the unit with the camo'd Stug III, Ausf G in the background, am thinking this is western front but maybe it isn't ? Also it appears we have members from two different units, black collar/skull patches of a Pz.jagd plus Stug Abt/Brigade as well ? thank you.
No Ulrich the black collar patch with skull and it had most likely pink Waffenfarbe for a Panzer-jadg Kp ? but then again if it was outlined in red it would be from an independent Stug Kp/Abt. confusing it is. Definitely Heer though.
Georg served on the Ost front for his career and I can only assume the members here due to broken branches on the Stug might be somewhere in France ? 1944. still it could be Ost front as well.
a kleine Frei-Jagd Oblt. Franz Lüdwig RK on 28.06.44 with 2./Pz.-Jagd Abt. 1346 (Stug). Foto: 10 July 1944 in Normandie. KIA: 14.08.44. Unit served with the Heer 346 Infantrie Division largely destroyed at Normandie later rebuilt in Holland.
Ulrich it appears this might be the only pic of him wearing the RK as he achieved the award and within 2 months KIA even die-sturmartilliere seite does not have a foto of him. I may just send this on to him ....... ?
hey guys, could this have been a staged propaganda photo? i mean those 3 guys standing back over by the tube looking slighty bored gives me that impression
