Correction: This could be a military tactic by the Germans. Given the close fighting situation, perhaps the Germans had a plan to have their highest ranking officer with no visible rank or insignia. This would protect the high officer from the enemy. This is also along the lines of why you're never supposed to salute a superior officer in close combat.
