(6.4.1944-9.11.1944) 26.8.1944 Pionier-Sonderstab 71.
Martin W Posted January 28, 2013 Posted January 28, 2013 Hi Kev, any idea on this signature ? I cannot quite make it out,"Albrecht" perhaps ? Thanks,Martin.
hucks216 Posted January 28, 2013 Author Posted January 28, 2013 Hi Kev, any idea on this signature ? I cannot quite make it out,"Albrecht" perhaps ? Thanks,Martin. Yep - that belongs to Conrad Albrecht who held that position from 3rd July 1935 to 31st October 1938. He retired in December 1939.
Martin W Posted January 29, 2013 Posted January 29, 2013 Thanks Kevin. You are a wealth of information. It looks like you do not have this signature in the database,so i will add it. Many thanks and regards,Martin.
Martin W Posted February 18, 2014 Posted February 18, 2014 Hi Kevin, i may have posted this one before but after going through the database i could not find it. A Minesweeper document to a Stabsobersteuermann Walter Fiedler,signed in Wilhelmshaven on 8 November 1940. It is a large 12 x 81/2 inch (A4) doc. Sadly,the signature of the K,zur See und Fuhrer der Minensuchverbande Nord has faded and is barely visible. Any idea who the signer of this document was ? Any help would be appreciated here. Being honest here i am going to sell this document but it would be nice to figure out who signed it. I need to raise money for a very special (to Me) Hilfskreuzer document. Many thanks,Martin.

I think it is the signature of Knights Cross winner Kurt Böhmer. As you say, it is very faded but I think I can make out the 'öhm' part of his name.
Martin W Posted February 18, 2014 Posted February 18, 2014 Thanks a lot Kevin. I think you are correct.Here is another similar document signed in Wilhelmshaven about a month later by Bohmer. Much appreciated. Martin.

Martin W Posted February 19, 2014 Posted February 19, 2014 Thanks Kevin, you have been a great help,as always. Regards,Martin.

Fred Perry Posted April 15, 2014 Posted April 15, 2014 This is signature of Kommandierender Admiral Skagerrak. Is this signature of Hans-Heinrich Wurmbach?
hucks216 Posted April 16, 2014 Author Posted April 16, 2014 This is signature of Kommandierender Admiral Skagerrak. Is this signature of Hans-Heinrich Wurmbach? Based on the stamp and date, I would say so, yes.
aeneas Posted June 30, 2014 Posted June 30, 2014 (edited) I would also say this is a Wurmbach signature. For comparsion mine: Edited June 30, 2014 by aeneas
