Can anyone identfy where or when the attached photo was taken or whom might be in the photo with Mölders. The photo was given to a German schoolgirl in 1941

According to the Kracker archive von Houwald was KIA 24 Jul 1940 with JG52 (?).

Thanks both. Was there another Von Houwald?

In the book he was mentioned as 'oberst Frhr.von Houwald'.It's possible that he was:
Oberstlt.Otto-Friedrich Freiherr von Houwald,commanding officer of Jagdfliegerschule 1.,20.11.1939-15.12.1942
