I don't think they are recieving orders, more likely celebrating or being presented something, note the two wine bottles (well chilled I imagine) and the tray the officer is about to give to the crewman

KEEPING THE PANZERTRUPPE WARM:

The German Army developed the first parkas
for use during the winter of 1942/43.
The winter uniform was complete with coat w/hood, trousers and mittens it was also reversible with field gray on one side and white on the other.
The white side had a set of buttons on the arms and legs to attach color identification bands the colors changed daily and was used to identify friend from foe.
