Heer Help - unknown Wehrmacht General ? - Gebirgsjäger General ?

[AlecH]

Picked up this unknown General's portrait postcard. Do members know who he may be. The reverse is blank, only in small print, printers name and address Sonthofen -Oberstdorf. However Sonthofen was the garrison town of 99th Gebirgsjäger Regt. perhaps a Gebirgsjäger General. I'm only guessing. All information welcome.

Regards

III/GebRgt 99 was stationed at Sonthofen. Good chance he was related to Gebirgstruppe. Second ribbon from left Bavarian MV?. Third from left definitely an östterr MV, tapferskeitsmedaille or Signum Laudis m KD on Kriegsband. None of the 1 Geb Div generals. I tried some of the Truppenübungsplatz Kmdr in Wehrkreis VII but come up empty-handed.

Too young for Hans FrHr v Riedel Abt Leiter b WEI München whom I have never seen before.

Cheers

Freiherr

#3 is definitely the östterr MVK. Signum Laudis was generally not awarded to non-Austro-Hungarian military, also the wreath was used with MVK only. I suppose #5 could be the Bavarian Order of St. Michael. It is worn after the Ehrenkreuz des Weltkrieges, so it is most probably a civilian award. Perhaps this will help a little.
