hucks216 Posted October 12, 2013 Author Share Posted October 12, 2013 That is an outstanding amount of information, especially at the speed you've been able to identify him. Thanks alot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred Perry Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 I think that the signature of Erwin Oßwald is facsimile - is it really so? Is signature of oberstleutnant original? maybe you know his name? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hucks216 Posted November 5, 2013 Author Share Posted November 5, 2013 The signature of Oswald is indeed a facsimile. The signature of the Oberstleutnant confirms the facsimile signature as being the authorising authority. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hucks216 Posted November 7, 2013 Author Share Posted November 7, 2013 With regards to this signature does it say 'Rolf' or 'Roth'? In the 1941 DAL there is an Oberstleutnant Roth listed with a Pz.Jäger unit but I have not been able to find anything definite. Any additional details would be appreciated.

Fred Perry Posted November 29, 2013 Share Posted November 29, 2013 Hi friends! What do you think about this Generalleutnant Alfred Ritter von Hubicki's signature - original or fake? I doubt it, because the printed docs can often be fake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt it, because the printed docs can often be fake. It looks fine. I have an example in my files that also has that little kink in the 'Kommandeur 9. Panzer-Division' stamp.

Fred Perry Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 (edited) I think this is not signature of Karl Burdach (Divisionskommandeure 08/1941- 03/1943). Whose signature? Edited December 7, 2013 by Fred Perry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Believe it or not, that is actually Karl Burdach's signature. Check the Signature Database for an example from 1944. The 'B' is written like that in a number of signatures, Baade and Walter Behschnitt being others. Edited December 7, 2013 by hucks216 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fred Perry Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 (edited) I want to show you the part of very intresting award document which was given in the fortress Frankfurt / Oder. What do you think - is this signature of Biehler, Ernst or unknown major? Edited February 6, 2014 by Fred Perry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred Perry Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 And also I want to ask about this strange signature. Is this signature on an uneven surface or is this facsimile? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Danner Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 (edited) The signature is Otto Kuschow: http://verwaltungshandbuch.bayerische-landesbibliothek-online.de/kuschow-otto I increased the image by 400%. Based on how regular the pattern of dots are, I'd say facsimile. Edited February 10, 2014 by Dave Danner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I seem to recall seeing this before and I can't remember if the signature was identified or not. Edited February 10, 2014 by hucks216 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

("im Auftrag", or on behalf of) the Festungskommandant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
