This photo was taken by Hugo Jaeger and it shows Wehrmacht war manoeuvre in the Rhine region, early May 1940. This training was held just a few days before the start of Germany's colossal invasion of the West (France and Benelux, Netherlands Belgium Luxembourg). From left to right: Generaloberst Georg von Küchler (Oberbefehlshaber 18. Armee), General der Artillerie Albert Wodrig (Kommandierender General XXVI.

Armeekorps), unknown, and Generalleutnant Dr.jur. Alfred Ritter von Hubicki (Kommandeur 9. Panzer-Division).
