why would the "Deutscher Luftsportverband" be at that wedding? did they always go to a soldiers wedding or just a soldier of a high rank?
Like I said; maybe they are comrades of the bridegroom. In any case, it is safe to assume that there was some kind of connection between him and the DLV. (Of course they didn't just line up at any wedding.)

is there any luck on the feld-post? it would be interesting to know what it says, i cant undertsand the writing even if it was in english
Sorry, but no. The old Sütterlin script is always giving me an extremely hard time. Some words of this letter I can read, others not, and trying to decypher the whole thing would take me hours.

CHRIS: The photo of the car with the Unit symbol of a Horse on it......is the symbol of the 211th Infantry Division !! One of the Kommanduers of the Division: Heinrich Eckhardt, was a KC with Oak Leaves winner! He survived the war, but died only days after being captured by American G.I.'s.
I will try and get more info on when the 211th was in support of your Panzerjager unit. I will have to look back in the thread, because I forget what the Pz Jagr unit is.
I do know that they were formed in 1939 and Destroyed at the Eastern Front in 44' (like so many others).....and redesignated the "211th Volksgrenadier Div" at the end of 44'.
By the way, nice photos Patrick!
