Unfortunately nothing significant with the net search with several engines but maybe this helps with the search by others.

"Sturmbannfuhrer Hermann Buchner of the Totenkopf Division (Waffen-SS)

KIA outside Warsaw 1944. For a photo of Buchner and his impressive collection of decorations, see "SS Regalia" by Robin Lumsden, Saturn Books, London, England 1995 and turn to page 141."

I actually got another of Lumsden's book-Himmler's SS-which shows Buchner and his decorations-that's what started my interest In him.
