Re: Photos of High Award Winners RKT and above !!
Here is a new addition to my collection of photos. I have no idea who this might be. The photo is clear enough that he should be identifiable. Also, an inscription on the reverse.

The caption identifies the occasion as the crossing of the Dnjepr River on 1 Sept. 1942 and the person as an Oberleutnant of a Pionierkompanie.
The name looks like "Kallbitz" or something similiar to me; this man could be Helmut Kalbitz, who was a Pionier RKT.

Thought shall be the harder , heart the keener,
Courage the greater as our strength faileth.
Here lies our leader ,in the dust of his greatness.
Who leaves him now , be damned forever.
We who are old now shall not leave this Battle,
But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader

Thanks Paul!
That would fit with the timeline as the photo is dated 1/9/42
