Picture from post 4 looks like Reinhardt Heydrich (SOE stopped his clock for him). Is it?

Adolf Diekmann of SS Das Reich, accused of leading the massacre at Oradour. Later killed on the Eastern Front.

If he was captured, how did he get to the eastern front?

Whoever the guy is who is being taken into captivity in the first pic, the troops look pretty doubtful about him. SS?

He wasn't captured, that photo was only intended to illustrate my remark that they knew how to design uniforms.
