U-205 photos
Posted by: mathsmal ()

Hi

Are these photos of Kptlt. Franz-Georg Reschke of the U-205? The group photo looks like it may also include Oblt. Friedrich Bürgel who took over command of U-205 from Reschke in 1942 (third from left, next to Reschke).

The second photo shows an officer drinking from a cup which appears to show the coat of arms of Salzburg - the U-205's emblem.

Can anyone confirm if this assumption is correct. Unfortunately there are no clues written on the photos, and while the crew members in other photos do show emblems on their sidecaps, the images are out of focus, so they just appear to be white/silver ovals with no detail.

Any thoughts would be appreciated!
