Guest Rick Research Posted October 1, 2005 Share Posted October 1, 2005 A Regierungsrat here could just as well be a military Beamter on the higher career path ("senior major") as a civilian bureaucrat with the exact same rank title. I'd expect since there ARE swords, that he was indeed a military official.The scribble is that of Gustav "Kastner"-Kirdorf (1881-1945) who signed so many gazillions of Luftwaffe award documents that this sort of smeared scrawl is fairly typical.
