The smoking officer in the first photo is a Hauptmann of the Luftwaffe. The man on the right in the second one is an Obergefreiter of the Heer.
Thank you for your help!
I will add that the Luftwaffe officer is a World War I veteran. He is wearing a wound badge from the WWI era and the ribbon in the second buttonhole is from the iron cross second class WWI vintage with a Spange indicating receipt of the same award in WWII. NH
And on the Luftwaffe Hauptmann's uniform you can see an "SA" Sportsabzeichen awarded to members of the SA from 1933 to 1945 and to other paramilitary groups as well. NH
Thanks for your information!
