2) Ion Antonescu received his knight's cross on 6th August 1941. Am I right in assuming that he is wearing this medal on the photo? If that's true, the photo was taken after this date.
Yes; he is wearing the Knight's Cross (around his neck) as well as the Gemeinsames Flugzeugführer- und Beobachterabzeichen in Gold mit Brillanten (above his left breast pocket).

9) Presentation of the new windblouse for the Gebirgsjäger (mountaintroops), probably around 1938
I'm afraid 1938 is impossible, as the officer doing the explaining is wearing several wartime decorations.

Some questions that still remain:
1) -
2) Hitler in conversation with Ion Antonescu, Prime Minister and dictator of Romania. They met several times, sadly I do not know when the photo was taken. What do you think?
3) -
4) -
5) Hitler giving a speed in front of the Reichstag. Late 1930's?
6) -
7) -
8) Date unknown...
9) Mountainside retreat Obersalzberg, 1943. Does the background really look like the Obersalzberg? Probably the presentation of a uniform? Is this the German Wehrmacht officer Otto Ernst Remer who explains the uniform to Hitler?
Thanks for all your help!
Best regards,
Stefan
2. Another famous face. Is that not Ribbentrop to Hitlers emediate right?
3. Could this picture be from when Hitler was in-prisoned?

Remer didn't get his Knight's Cross until after the 20 July 1944 Coup Attempt, so I have doubts that this is Remer showing Hitler the Mountain-Troop Smock...Photo may have been taken at one of the barracks in the area of the Obersalzberg, but not the Berghof itself...I could be mistaken, but that appears to be part of an SS Rune Flag visible...

Great, thanks a lot!
Any comments on my previous post with the supposed race car driver?

I'm far from sure (and am really terribly bad with faces anyway), but I think it could be Bernd Rosemeyer.
