Just in case you don't have access to the Führerliste, here is his entry...

Set to an eventual Major who served in Pz.Rgt GD. Signatures seen include those of Oberst Hyazinth Graf von Strachwitz & Oberstleutnant Dallmer-Zerbe.

Nice example. I have one to a Luftwaffenoberhelfer who served in a searchlight unit. See first post here... Flak Badge Citations

If it has a Latvian link you might be better off posting this in the Northern European & Baltic States subsection in the European States section of the Forum.

Nice selection of images. Is the first one on the bottom row taken from some sort of Ausweis or Wehrpass?

Signed as an Oberstleutnant in 1941.

That is an outstanding amount of information, especially at the speed you've been able to identify him. Thanks alot.

And another one. This time it is an Oberst serving as an Abteilung Kdr in 1938 - I/Pz.Rgt 8.

If he remained in service I would imagine that he made General rank...

That's a great help Dave. Many thanks.

I have a Soldbuch to a Generalmajor and was wondering if anyone can identify any of the following signatures please.

I did originally think this was the signature of Werner Richter (Oberst i.G & DKiG) but the more I look at it the less sure I am. The unit entry is Oberkommando HG Nord..

The next two I have no idea about. The Abteilung in question is OKH P2...

Signature in Soldbuch dated in 1942.

Thanks for the reply Dave. As he commanded the HG-2 Division for a couple of months in 1945 in East Prussia he was still an active serving officer. So I think it might be worth while looking into what is at NARA. In a week or so's time I'll have his WW-1 & 2 Soldbucher in my collection so any light (or potentially) that can be shed on him that won't be in those would be great.

A quick question for anyone that might know of the answer. If I am seeking a copy of a personnel file (or whatever is available along those lines) for a Generalmajor would NARA hold a copy? Specifically Georg Seegers (OKH P2, IR 432, IR 431 & Fallschirm-Pz.Gren.Div 'HG' 2 as well as WW-1 service in IR 77)

File Name: A) Inf.Rgt (mot.) GD Kompanie Establishment 1939 to April 1942

File Category: Germany

Spreadsheet of Inf.Rgt Großdeutschland officers and their positions from 1939 to April 1942 down to Kompanie level.

This is very rough & ready and will forever be a work in progress as new names are found (or amended) and incorporated.
Think of the Remarks (RMKS) column as being my equivalent of border notes on the page of a research book and positions are a mixture of English & German.
If anyone has extra details that would be of benefit to the file please feel free to contact me so I can incorporate the details. There are two more such files spanning April 1942 to Wars End and will be uploaded in time if there is sufficient interest.

Sources used are the many publications & websites concerning GD and details taken from numerous Citations & Wehrpasse/Soldbücher.

Coming from a WW-2 German citation collector perspective, I wish that the Third Reich had continued with such ornate designs for the EK citations even if the printing or issuing of them was more centrally controlled.

Hopefully members will be able to help. And thanks for the additions to the Signature Database - any and all additions are very welcome.

I have a KG-53 Wehrpass & citation set to an air gunner/radio operator who also flew on 10 air-launched V-1 operations against the UK - listed in the Wehrpass as 10 Sondereinsatz gegen England.

A good book covering the air-launched V-1 campaign is Air Launched Doodlebugs by Peter Smith.

I can't be 100% sure but I believe it is the English translation of his German book on the unit...

But it is cheaper to buy it from the UK Amazon site than it is from the US one (for once!)...

Are you aware that an English language history of KG-53 is soon to be published?: http://www.amazon.com/Kampfgeschwader-53-%2522Legion-Condor%2522-Complete/dp/0764344757/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1379008602&sr=8-1&keywords=9780764344756

That is an outstanding set, especially with the Flugbüch entries.
