I./JG 3 - help to identify an officer with KC
Pic named "I./JG 3 1943 Mönchengladbach". At right Oblt. Helmut Mertens, who could be the Leutnant with Knights Cross (KC) at left?
At this time (Summer 1943) two other KC holders flew with I./JG 3, Detlev Rohwer and Franz Schwaiger. Maybe one of them?
Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

Hairstyle would point towards Rohwer in my opinion; definitely not Schwaiger

May be Klaus Quaet-Faslem who was the group commander, it to me looks like him.
