This is a nice portrait photograph of 'Hans Geismann' Hauptmann der Luftwaffe in Kampfgeschwader 77 and in Nachtjagdgeschwader 1. Nice quality portrait showing 'Hans Geismann' wearing his four-pocket tunic (Waffenrock) and visor cap (Schirmmütze). The collar tabs indicate he had the rank of 'Leutnant' at the time the picture was taken. His Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross (Ritterkreuz des Eisernes Kreuz) is clearly visible around is neck. He's also wearing his German Cross in Gold (Deutsches Kreuz in Gold) at his right chest. A Luftwaffe Pilot's Badge (Flugzeugführerabzeichen), an Iron Cross 1st Class (Eisernes Kreuz 1e Klasse), a Heavy, Medium & Dive Bomber Squadron Clasp in Gold (Frontflugspange für Kampfflieger) and a ribbon bar (bandspange) for the Westwall Medal are visible on his left-breast. The photograph measures approximately 10,5 x 14,5 cms in size and is in good condition with small damage at the down left corner, see scans. Unique portrait photograph of a highly decorated Luftwaffe Leutnant!
