Luftwaffe capitulation Czechoslovakia 1945

Maybe someone seen this Signal Corps
footage elsewhere before ,then I was
wondering about the identity of the US
Army Colonel the Luftwaffe NCO's.
It could well be JG 52

I think that the guy on the right is an officer, Oberleutnant, rather than an NCO.

Sidney


For example the person on the right seems
to be Oberweldwebel otherwise Hauptmann
considering the larger bird lower botton of
the gorget patch he may well be capt.

This is what I see as far as the officer on the right hand side is concerned.

The person on the left is a NCO (Feldwebel) and the one on the right an officer (Oberleutnant) which is underlined by the silver braid on his collar and visor cap.
