Felix Steiner and Wiking Officers in 1942


SS-Gruppenführer und Generalleutnant der Waffen-SS Felix Steiner (center) together with his subordinates from the SS-Division "Wiking" (motorisiert). The officer to the right of Steiner, wearing glasses, are SS-Oberführer Herbert-Otto Gille (Kommandeur SS-Artillerie Regiment 5 "Wiking"). Between Steiner and Gille is probably SS-Obersturmbannführer Paul Geisler (Kommandeur SS-Infanterie-Regiment "Westland"), while the one standing to the far right behind behind Gille is probably SS-Standartenführer Dr.-med. Gerd Unbehaun (Divisionsarzt SS-Division "Wiking"). This photo itself was most likely taken in the spring of 1942.
