    I will also contribute my share to this thread. This is a small photo-grouping that belonged to a Panzer Leutnant from the Nürnberg-area in Bayern. First two studio portraits (wedding photos) of him and his wife, him wearing his black panzer wrap. The last photo is taken in Praha (Prague) and shows the Leutnant and his wife visiting the Barrandov film studio (she probably enjoyed this visit more than he did by the looks of it). He is wearing his Dienstbluse here of course.

    On the second photo (close-up one) his ribbon bar is quite visible and to me the ribbons look to be EKII (of course), "West Wall" and "Sudetenland medal" with Prager Burg spange. Hard to tell colours on these photos. Does anyone see something different in these ribbons? The "Sudetenland medal" with the Prager Burg spange certainly would relate to the photo from Praha. These photos are personal favorites of mine although I find it hard to explain why that is.

    Kenneth, All I can do is fully agree with everyone else! I can see why these are your favorites! I absolutely love the close-up portrait. Looking forward to seeing others from you in the future. appreciate you sharing them. By the way, your Panzermann looks like he could be Erwin Kressman's brother! haha

    GdPwny, nice pics as usual. The Panzer in your photo is from the 6th Panzer Division. Note the unit/division "rune" type insignia (upside down Y with 2 dots).

    Hi Bill nice pics. Is that belt conventional for this rank? The brocade one was only for officers?
