This picture was taken in July 1944 during the Battle of Normandy, and it shows SS-Oberführer Heinz Harmel (Kommandeur 10. SS-Panzer-Division "Frundsberg") in his command post near the town of Avrecy, around 12 km southwest of Caen. At this point, the "Frunsbergers" were subordinate to the II. SS-Panzerkorps and had the task of preventing the Allies from breaking out of the landing area to the east.
