SS-Hauptsturmführer Erwin Meierdrees (left, Kommandeur I.Abteilung / SS-Panzer-Regiment 3 / SS-Panzergrenadier-Division "Totenkopf") and SS-Obersturmbannführer Kurt Meyer (Kommandeur SS-Aufklärungs-Abteilung 1 / SS-Panzergrenadier-Division "Leibstandarte SS Adolf Hitler") consult a map during the attack of SS-Panzerkorps on the city of Kharkov, when Totenkopf and Leibstandarte officers met in the village of Peresechnaya near Kharkov on 3 March 1943. That day, Meyer's Kampfgruppe, which included Max Wünsche's I./SS-Panzer Reg.1, linked up with elements of the SS-Panzergrenadier-Division "Totenkopf", including Meierdress' I./SS-Panzer Reg.3. A lot of photos were taken that day, as Meierdress posed with the "celebrities" from Leibstandarte: Meyer, Wünsche, and Fritz Witt in particular. "Panzermeyer" had just in the past few days returned from Hitler's HQ, where he had received the Eichenlaub that he is wearing in this picture, which were awarded on February 23, 1943. Also in this picture, both Meierdrees and Meyer wore one-piece panzerkombi for tank troops.
