Rudolf Meister Visiting the Base of III./KG 53

Generalleutnant Rudolf Meister (right, Kommandierender General IV. Fliegerkorps) saluting Major Emil Allmendinger (Gruppenkommandeur III./KG 53) during his visit to the base of III.Gruppe / Kampfgeschwader 53 (KG 53) "Legion Condor" at Schaulen / Memel, spring of 1944. Even though Meister has already received the Deutsches Kreuz in Gold on 10 November 1941, but in this picture we can see that his uniform is "clean" without any medal whatsoever! Meister would receive the Ritterkreuz des Eisernen Kreuzes on 5 September 1944. His last rank is General der Flieger.
