hucks216 Posted February 25, 2014 Author Posted February 25, 2014 I don't have any examples in my files to compare but it looks possible. Also looks to be an interesting citation variant.
hucks216 Posted March 8, 2014 Author Posted March 8, 2014 Probably not much chance as a positive ID of this signature due to the low rank and being in the training & replacement units of GD, but what do others think the first few letters are? I think the first letter could be an S, but it could also be a H or J with the following letters having the chance of being c, e or a.
hucks216 Posted March 12, 2014 Author Posted March 12, 2014 (edited) Can anyone confirm who this signature belongs to please? The listing for 3rd January 1939 states an Oberst (E) Röhrssen as Kommandeur of WBK Deutsche Krone but not sure if he would still be in charge in September 1942. I can kind of see some of that name in the signature but also parts that I can't! Edited March 12, 2014 by hucks216
Dave Danner Posted March 12, 2014 Posted March 12, 2014 Röhrssen was Gruppenleiter I der Wehrersatzinspektion Köslin from 27.10.39 to 31.12.43, Kdr. WBK Köslin from 1.1.43 to 28.2.43, and then Kdr. WBK Swinemünde until some time in 1944 when he went into the Führer-Reserve OKH (his file is almost illegible at that point). The signature is his file is fuzzy (the entire roll of microfilm was filmed out of focus ), but that does not appear to be it.
hucks216 Posted March 13, 2014 Author Posted March 13, 2014 Thanks for that Dave. The signature certainly looks different. The 03.01.1939 Gliederung lists him as an Oberst in charge at WBK Deutsche Krone but the 1940 DAL has him one rank lower as an Oberstleutnant in that position but as an Oberst in the 1942 DAL.
hucks216 Posted March 17, 2014 Author Posted March 17, 2014 Three signatures on a Führerschein. The first one is for a Hauptmann(E) in Pz.Abwehr-Abt 5 and dated for 1938... The second is for an Oberstleutnant in command of Panzerjäger-Abt 125 (125 ID) and is dated for March 1941... The third and final one is for a Major in command of Reserve-Panzerjäger-Abteilung 5 and is dated for August 1943...
Fred Perry Posted March 22, 2014 Posted March 22, 2014 I think this is not the signature of the Artillerie-Regiment 35 commander Oberst Friedrich Breith. I think this is signature of I. Abteilung commander Major Bechtel. What do you think?
hucks216 Posted March 22, 2014 Author Posted March 22, 2014 (edited) I think this is not the signature of the Artillerie-Regiment 35 commander Oberst Friedrich Breith. I think this is signature of I. Abteilung commander Major Bechtel. What do you think? I have a copy of Friedrich Breith's signature in my files and that doesn't match. It is that of Georg Bechtel (DKiG). Edited March 22, 2014 by hucks216
Dave Danner Posted March 31, 2014 Posted March 31, 2014 I could probably find these with a little Google-fu, but given the unit, I figured others might like to have the fun of contributing: The battalion is the Führer-Grenadier-Battalion.
Bernhard H.Holst Posted March 31, 2014 Posted March 31, 2014 Hello Dave. Freiherr v. Werthern. Bernhard H. Holst
hucks216 Posted March 31, 2014 Author Posted March 31, 2014 (edited) And the bottom one is Gustav Streve who commanded FBB at the Wolf's Lair... Streve Edited April 1, 2014 by hucks216
Fred Perry Posted April 2, 2014 Posted April 2, 2014 (edited) What do you think is this original Dr. Johannes Mayer's (http://www.lexikon-der-wehrmacht.de/Personenregister/MayerJ.htm) signature or no? Mayer was Generalleutnant from 1. April 1943, but in the EK II doc 15/03/1943 we can see that he is Generalleutnant. Sorry for the bad pictures. Edited April 2, 2014 by Fred Perry
Bernhard H.Holst Posted April 2, 2014 Posted April 2, 2014 Hello Fred. Per Wolf Keilig Dr.DR. Johannes Mayer was promoted Gen.Lt. effective 1.Feb.1943. Bernhard H. Holst
hucks216 Posted April 4, 2014 Author Posted April 4, 2014 What do you think is this original Dr. Johannes Mayer's (http://www.lexikon-der-wehrmacht.de/Personenregister/MayerJ.htm) signature or no? Mayer was Generalleutnant from 1. April 1943, but in the EK II doc 15/03/1943 we can see that he is Generalleutnant. Sorry for the bad pictures. That does match the example in my files.
Fred Perry Posted April 15, 2014 Posted April 15, 2014 Sorry for the bad pictures. Good scans of Mayer's signatures.
hucks216 Posted July 22, 2014 Author Posted July 22, 2014 Does anyone have a listing for IR 436 (132 ID) please and can help identify this signature of the II Btl commander. Dated December 1943 with a rank of Major...
Fred Perry Posted September 9, 2014 Posted September 9, 2014 This is signature of Art.Rgt.330 commander. Do you know who was the commander of the regiment?
hucks216 Posted September 21, 2014 Author Posted September 21, 2014 (edited) Can anyone help to identify this signature of a Hauptmann and Kompanie-Chef of 1./Pz.Abw.Abt 36 dated for 1937 please? I have checked the 03-Jan-1939 listing on the off chance he still held the same position but can not see anything that fits. Edited September 21, 2014 by hucks216
hucks216 Posted November 25, 2014 Author Posted November 25, 2014 (edited) Who is this General der Artillerie? I'm afraid that the signature is a faked attempt. The Feldpost Number in the stamp is that for Stab II u. 5.-8. Kompanie Grenadier-Regiment 331 and so doesn't match the unit either. Edited November 25, 2014 by hucks216
Fred Perry Posted November 25, 2014 Posted November 25, 2014 Thank you very much, I think so too, is my doc from WA.
hucks216 Posted December 27, 2014 Author Posted December 27, 2014 Can anyone identify this signature of a Generalmajor from 1936 from Waldenburg please? I thought that it might be Georg Kühn but he was in command of 3.Pz.Brigade during 1936.
Fred Perry Posted January 26, 2015 Posted January 26, 2015 Is this signature of Generalleutnant Kurt Chill?
hucks216 Posted January 26, 2015 Author Posted January 26, 2015 The date and unit match but I don't have an example in my files to compare it with I'm afraid.
