Generalleutnant Hasso von Manteuffel (in the halftrack, Kommandeur Panzergrenadier-Division "Grossdeutschland") with his Operations Officer (Ia), Oberst i.G. Oldwig von Natzmer in the Eastern Front. The book "Panzergrenadier-Division Großdeutschland" by Horst Scheibert said that this picture was taken in the end of January 1944, but the summer uniform wore by Von Manteuffel and Von Natzmer suggests that it was probably taken in the spring or summer 1944. Other picture taken from the same occasion (see below) is added with the "May 1944" writing by Von Manteuffel himself.
