[Doug Stankey]

Having checked our database for Rk holders whose names start with "Sei" and are associated with bombers yields only:

SEIFFERT, Heinz. (DOB: 18.12.20 in Krietern/Schlesien).
31.12.43 Oblt. and Staka 3./KG 3, awarded the Ritterkreuz for destroying 37 tanks, 132 trucks, 77 railway cars, 7 AA positions and 2 railway bridges.



He had no association with KG 77!
In fact in late 43 or early 44 II./KG 77 (deduced from code 3Z+_C) and I./KG 3 were not even near each other, so they could not be “visiting” each other.
Furthermore, a search shows that there were no known officers associated with KG 77 whose Names start with “Sei”.
Conclusion: the inscription on the back of the pic is misleading.

Anyone out there recognize their faces?

Regarding “Greves”: We have him as:

GREVE, Karl-Heinz (Carl-Heinz). (DOB: 17.10.20 in Münster/Westfalen).
02.05.42 Lt., awarded DKG, 3./KGr. 606.
07.10.42 Lt., awarded the Ritterkreuz for sinking a destroyer and 51,000 BRT of enemy shipping, as well as severely damaging an aircraft carrier and a cruiser.
01.04.43 in I./KG 77, promo to Oblt.
c.07.43 Oblt., appt Kdr. II./KG 77 (to 20.07.44).

This looks like this could be one of them.
