Last but not least comes a very rare photo, which I was hunting for some time and today I could finish the deal Member of the Sonderverband 288 The photo was taken at the isle of Rhodos 1943 Of course I can not compete with Gordon Williamson's amazing lot of photos of the Sonderverband but I am quite proud of this one. Note the little skulls on the collars. Thanks for viewing. Kind regards Robert

Here are some other photos which are new in the collection Start with a man from the Transportgruppe Speer More interesting is the photo together with his comrades Closer: Left and right men are from the NSKK, see their shoulder boards and the cap eagles. The two in the middle are from the Transportgruppe Speer, note they wear different shoulder-boards and different cap eagles. One is even wearing a mountain cap, which I have not seen so far on NSKK and Speer photos. And the man on the left is wearing a blank buckle, quite interesting. .......

...... Any recognition of the other two men ? Left is another high ranking NSKK leader, next to Kraus is an army General Here's a postcard of the school Kind regards Robert -
A photograph which seems interesting on second sight: This soldier of a Garde unit is wearing a shoulder band, which I think is from a students organisation. A woman ( his mother ? ), is preparing gifts, probably to give them to him, who seems to be on the leave to the front-lines.. Cigarettes and chocolate and other things. Here is his shoulder-board. The photo is a bit blurry, however it is a nice shot. Kind regards Robert

Got these two nice portraits yesterday ( on a rather boring fleamarket ). They are not exciting, nor do they show something extraordinary, but Reichswehr navy portraits are hard to find, as not too much men served in the navy before 1935. Also is a nice detail is the big Navy flag used as a background pattern. Kind regards Robert

There seems to have been a lot of changing in uniforms during that short period of 12 years. I have not seen those RLB uniforms neither. I knew of the RLB-arm badge, but have not seen that together with the early style DLV-eagle on the sleeve. You are probably right, that these younger members later went into the Luftwaffe and only the older members continued the RLB work. The photo is not dated, but place was somewhere in lower bavaria. Photograph was from Dorfen and Tittmoning, both towns in the lower bavarian region. I always like those photos from the "non-armed" formations. They always show up something new. Robert -
