K98 Cheek Rests: Photo Documentation

So, I've not seen any cheek rests out there, but came across this photo in a book.

"The German Sniper 1914-1945" by Peter R. Senich

Has anyone else seen a photo or have better photo?

Perhaps any advice on how to find a copy of Training Manual H.Dv 298/20 (October 1944)?

The cheek rest is a big force multiplier on the M41b, I would presume it would be helpful on the K98s as well.

The G.41(W) trials snipers have a cheek pad as well - but mainly since the scope mount is offset to the left.

What book was that information in?
It may be common knowledge by more knowledgeable K98 folks, but not myself.
Tanks.
