June 19, 20251 yr #2 This is a photograph of the first Reichsführer-ᛋᛋ Julius Screck, who held that command, 1925-1926. He was Hitler's personal chauffer until his death from meningitis in 1936. Schreck was a veteran of the First World War and held the Iron Cross Second Class 1914, the 1914-1918 Cross of Honor with Swords, the "Blood Order", the Bavarian Cross of Military Merit, and the NSDAP Golden Party Badge [Schreck joined the NSDAP in 1920].

June 19, 20251 yr #3 Your sure that’s not just hitler in an SS uniform? He has the facial features and the hallmark mustache! Just kidding, but in all seriousness Chriskelly nailed it 👍
June 19, 20251 yr #4 Addenda: One of Schreck's badges is the legendary Coburg Badge. The small pin was identified as "Sports Eagle of the National Motor and Air Travel Organisation", something I never heard of. Schreck at work in 1932. He's on the right, Hitler in the center, and Josef "Sepp" Dietrich on the left.
