Two Wehrmacht generals, from left to right: Generalleutnant Heinrich von Vietinghoff and General der Kavallerie Maximilian Reichsfreiherr von Weichs. This photo was most likely taken on October 26 1939 in Trier, Western Germany, during the handover ceremony for Commander of XIII. Armeekorps from Von Weichs to Von Vietinghoff. In the invasion of Poland which took place one month previously, this German Army Corps was in charge of three divisions: 10. Infanterie-Division, 17. Infanterie-Division, and 221. Infanterie-Division (for some time, Leibstandardte SS Adolf Hitler was also subordinated to XIII. Armeekorps).
