Who's that man?

Hi there!

This photograph was taken in August 1940.
He looks like Harry von Bülow-Bothkamp, but according to Obermaier's gospel, he was an Oberstleutnant when he was awarded the RK.
Thanks.

Chris

Not Bülow-Bothkamp!
Pic shows OTTO WEISS, KC 18.05.1940 (later Oak Leaves) as Hptm. and Kommandeur of the ground-attack unit II.(S)/LG 2, 1.7.40 promoted to Major.
