Can anyone help me identify this German naval officer please?

Possibly.......

Grand Admiral Eric Raeder?

 

Not Raedar Peter....Hugh can you tell me where you lifted the photo from - I have seen his face before but can't place him.

 

Hello James,
I have had some photos given to be concerning U-68 - I have an interest.
This is only a small portion of the photo as I am unsure at this stage who the copyright holder is. The complete photo shows this naval officer meeting Karl-Friedrich Merten commander of U-68 in 1941.
Regards
Hugh

For anyone interested. I have had confirmation from a source in Germany that this is Admiral Herrmann Densch, the the Commander in Chief NorthSeaForces.

Thanks Hugh , I was looking at this earlier this afternoon.
