hucks216 Posted January 29, 2015 Author Posted January 29, 2015 Who knows who was the commander of Marine-Artillerie-Abteilung I (http://www.lexikon-der-wehrmacht.de/Gliederungen/MarineArtAbt/MarineArtAbt1.htm) ? I Marine-Artillerie-Abteilung was dissolved in August 1939. Although that stamp says that unit name I think the signature belongs to the Kdr of 1. Ersatz-Marine-Artillerie-Abteilung. The Kdr of I MAA from 1938 to the unit desolving was Dothias Wiarda. The signature looks like it is saying Stornack but I can not find that name in the Lohmann/Hildebrand volume.
speedytop Posted January 29, 2015 Posted January 29, 2015 Hi, it should be Korvettenkapitän Wilhelm Hornack. Uwe
hucks216 Posted January 29, 2015 Author Posted January 29, 2015 (edited) Hi, it should be Korvettenkapitän Wilhelm Hornack. Uwe Yep - checking the Lohmann/Hildebrand volume it shows that he was indeed the Kdr of I.Ersatz-MAA from October 1939 to January 1940. Killed on 14th April 1940 during the Norway invasion as Kdr of Marine-Stosstruppabteilung (Kriegschiffe Gruppe 2). Edited January 29, 2015 by hucks216

Kriegsmarine Admiral Posted July 7, 2018 Posted July 7, 2018 Hello, can someone read the writing on this photo? I think it also includes the signature of the man on the photo. That would certainly help to identify him. Thanks
r_men Posted October 28, 2018 Posted October 28, 2018 Hello,can you recognize the signatute of the picture. Whish submatine commander is
hucks216 Posted October 28, 2018 Author Posted October 28, 2018 Just out of curiosity, why do you think it is a U-Boat commander? Kapitän zur See is too high a rank for a U-Boat commander and possibly too high for a U-Boat Flotilla commander, especially wartime.

stig58 Posted November 30, 2019 Posted November 30, 2019 Looking for a example of Theodor Detmers signature considering he died in 1976 and wrote a book his signature is not to be seen anywhere. Thanks Dennis
hucks216 Posted August 14, 2021 Author Posted August 14, 2021 This is a Luftwaffe signature - Herbert Bachus.
christerd Posted November 8, 2021 Posted November 8, 2021 I have a Feldpost letter posten in Memel April 1942, by a Kapitänleutnant with a name of ? von Bischotti ? Or ? the Feldpostnumber is M03184 but on the front i looks like M06121 ? I Know that it was a Uboat base in Memel , but of course he could have been anything in Kriegsmarine.
speedytop Posted November 9, 2021 Posted November 9, 2021 (edited) Hi, I think, that the name is Lilli von Bussotti Uwe Edited November 9, 2021 by speedytop

hucks216 Posted March 31 Author Posted March 31 Can anyone recognise these two Kriegsmarine signatures. If they stayed in the navy for WW-2 I would imagine that they would have been promoted at least once or twice, but they could have just as easily been retired. Signature one is for a Korvettenkapitän in Kommando Sperrschule in 1934. It looks like it could start with a 'von'. Signature two is for a Korvettenkapitän and Kommandeur I.Schiffsstammabteilung der Ostsee in 1937.
hucks216 Posted December 10 Author Posted December 10 (edited) From Chris Kelly: "Two interesting Urkunden to the same recipient. Does anyone know anything about the two admirals who endorsed them?" The first signature is Theodor Kranke - Edited December 10 by hucks216
