I would have thought Jon Fish on WAF is your man for that?

You need someone who can read the writing... I get hauptmann Gringot... but that seems harry Potterish.... Naxos could maybe nail it....

Hptmn Grinzel?

[dante]

Guys thanks...tried WAF no joy...anyone got a Rangliste ?

He could have been one of the cadets from the Infantry School in Munich, in 1923.

The absence of any other ribbon or Abzeichen indicates that the portrait dates between 1935 and about 1939.

So by 1940 he could have made it to major or up.

I've been through my Army lists, but no luck.

Thanks Odulf, Or transferred to the SS?? could it be "Grimsel, Walter, 14.02.1943, Oberleutnant d.R., 9./Gren.Rgt. 306"

Hmmmm...no Grimsel in my Blood Order list.

Maybe an Austrian?

[dante]

Oh well....

[Odulf]

To me it is not evident that the first letter is a G, it may also be a H, S or B.

The second letter can be an R but also a U

The third from behind may be a Z, but also a P...

See how many combinations you can make with these letters

Cheers........!!! :-)
