Possibly Konteradmiral Werner Schönermark at an unknown barracks, date and place unknown.
He was the Chief of the Naval-Defence-Office, OKM (15 February 1943-30 April 1944) and then Chief of the Naval-Troop-Office, OKM (01 May 1944-22 July 1945).
If anyone has any additional information about the location please comment. I am not 100% sure the admiral is indeed Werner Schönermark because the quality of the photo is bad.



Here is a comparison of photos of Konteradmiral Werner Schönermark (top row) with the close-ups of the admiral on my photo (bottom row). Please comment if you think it's the same admiral.

He held the rank of SS-Oberführer and served in the staff of the Reichsfhürer-SS before the outbreak of WW2.
