RK PHOTOS

I have just acquired a number of mixed RK-holder photos. Some are very obvious but can anyone easily help me with identifying these. Top 2nd right in the middle is Beppo Schmidt

Re: RK PHOTOS

The first one looks like a still of the german news item about nightfighters in Holland, Leeuwarden.

Chris,
Second Picture (EL-träger) pretty sure it is Lippe-Weissenfeld.
The last one (Oberst) is intriguing, because he is wearing the TRANSPORT-BADGE. I am not sure, but he looks like Obstlt. Ludwig Beckmann (KGzBv 500) - at least from a left side angle shot I saw here: http://www.luftwaffe39-45.historia.n....asp?vnum=1376

Re: RK PHOTOS

Who could be the airman wearing the White sommer LW uniform, on the Picture that Beppo Schmidt is depicted in the middle? He is at the extreme right and also is wearing the RK...

Re: RK PHOTOS

The third Picture (General at his Desk Office), could it be General der Flieger Rudolf Bogatsch?? Looks like pretty much: http://www.luftwaffe39-45.historia.n....asp?vnum=1731

Re: RK PHOTOS

Another view of General Bogatsch. It is hard to say. The collar tabs are missing in post # 1.
