I have had this U-170 grouping for several years now, but just purchased two photos of the owner recently. The grouping was to Willy Prediger, a Maschinenmaaten on the boat. The soldbuch has all of Prediger's awards entered, including the U-Boots-Frontspange in Silber. First, here are the photos recently purchased on eBay. I discovered that these photos were tied to Prediger about three hours before the auction closed, so was very lucky to get them.

Thanks, Joel! Interesting tradition badges on the "flowers" group photo: a u-boat. Not what I would have expected, as this badge does not reflect any of the three U-Flotillas that U-617 was associated with (5th, 7th, 29th). I've scanned as much detail as I can get - here are two different caps in wear.
