Another SS pic for you all to view.
If you look closely, it looks like an Army eagle on the sleeve of the over coat, instead of the SS eagle that should be there.
What do you all think of this photograph ?

Nice photo; again, thanks for sharing. Yes; that's an Army eagle. The use of Heer breast eagles instead of the official SS sleeve eagles was quite a common practice within the Waffen-SS and is seen on many period photographs.
Thank you , and that's what i found out also.
I post photos here, without any markings on them, for anyone to save them as they wish, I hate to see pics marked up, and i understand the reason why some people do that, and that's cool, but i choose not to do so.
I have in my possession the pics i post here, and i have no problems with people copying, and saving them as copies.

Here is a real nice LAH photo for you all to see, and save.

An DAS REICH photo, just look at the tank assault badges on their sleeves.
These guys must have seen some serious action.

The men in the Knight's Cross award photo are, from left to right, Hermann Weiser, Kurt Meyer and Dr. Hermann Besuden. (The photo has appeared on other websites.)
The assault gun group photo of "Das Reich" personnel shows, from left to right, Hermann Bolte, Hartmut Braun, Wolfgang Otto and Friedrich-Wilhelm Graun standing in front of Ernst-August Krag's vehicle . (Another photo of this group plus Krag - obviously taken on the same occasion in 1943 - appears in Mark C. Yerger's Krag biography and volume 1 of his "German Cross in Gold" series.)
I guess that would depend on how one defines historical (as opposed to monetary) value. People researching certain individuals would find photographs of these persons particularly interesting, while researchers of uniforms, insignia and decorations would be particuarly interested in photographs depicting these aspects in good quality.
But generally spoken, photographs of identified persions will be of interest to a larger number of people, especially in the case of well-known individuals like Meyer.
