The man in the picture is Otto Skorzeny.

He was an Obersturmbannführer (Lieutenant Colonel) in the Waffen SS.

Well, in the sense of the larger unit commanders, I dont think Skorzeny could reasonably be included, any more than the great british commando leaders, like Stirling or Bagnold could be included.

For the record, however, I do think that Skorzeny was one of the most effective commandoes of his time, and certainly deserves a great ddeal of respect

I don't know, I did not throw him in the pot.

Yes, you are right about that.
