    1. Actually, HE was at home--

      the card is addressed to an Unteroffizier at the U.S. POW Camp.

      This kid is a F?hnrich (? zur See? any device on his string straps?). Whatever minimal "message" is pencilled in on the left (I can make out a partial DATE) I cannot read from this scan.

      There were many Sch?nemanns in the Imperial navy and Kriegsmarine, and if this was a brother and not a friend, possibly the engineer officer who retired as a Flottillenadmiral in the Bundesmarine, Dr. Werner Sch?nemann. But that would depend on the date pencilled in matching rank-- unless it was an old photo. Werner went in in '38 and was an Oberlt (Ing) in 1943, so a Lt circa 1941.

      Anybody able to google up a Bundesmarine admiral photo for face comparison? wow all this from a photo thanks rick
