Fahnenjunker-Oberfeldwebel Gerhard Niemeck (10.06.1916 † 19.07.1983) earned the Ritterkreuz des Eisernen Kreuzes on March 14, 1943 as Feldwebel und Zugführer in the 8. Kompanie/ Panzer-Regiment 31 of the 5. Panzer-Division. Small photo attached with photo corners on a postcard.

On the 07.03.1943 the 5. Panzer-Division succeeding in largely holding its defensive front, destroying 55 enemy tanks in the process.
