Günther Tribukait and Joseph Goebbels


Reichsminister Dr. Joseph Goebbels (Gauleiter of Berlin) is looking at the Soviet leaflet for the call to surrender, which were dropped to the German defender positions at Velikiye Luki, Russia. The Ritterkreuzträger who wears Bulgarian Order of Bravery at left is Major Günther Tribukait, who received the Ritterkreuz des Eisernen Kreuzes on 8 February 1943 as Kommandeur of Jäger-Bataillon 5. At far right behind Goebbels is Karl Fröhlich, who later received the Ritterkreuz as Oberleutnant and Chef 2.Kompanie / Panzer-Abteilung 18 / 18.Panzer-Division on 28 September 1943. This picture itself was taken in Berlin (Germany) on 2 March 1943, and were first published in "Neueste Zeitung" newspaper three days later (5 March 1943).
