The officer standing behind in the peak cap. Could it be Rommel back after his illness?? Or perhaps another officer of similar appearance. Appreciate your input :[]

Ok, I can deal with that, I have looked at all the books that I can find and do no find a similar face. I am sure there must be others out there. I was offered a significant amount of Euro's from a european author, and being the greedy bastard that I am wanted to know why he would offer that much.. Thanks a ton folks!! appreciate your efforts.. :D

Ok it is however a cool pic . I had it scanned at 1000 dpi or what ever they call it. it came out to be like 11X17 it was probably taken with a Leica according to my Photo guy. which had a great lens. for the clarity. The actual size is something like 2 x3. but very clear. all original. Again greedy bastard that i am I was hoping for a break through. Thanks folks and use it as you may.
