NJG 1 related signatures - help needed.
 
Hello all,
Can anyone identify these 2 signatures that have a link with NJG 1 please? The signature of the Hauptmann looks like it says Jabs but the 2 (postwar) signatures I have seen of his has a differently styled J & s. I have no idea of the Major's signature. Unfortunately there is no date.

The first image you posted is the signature of Hans-Joachim Jabs.

Regards Richard.

Thanks for confirming that Richard. Just the Major to figure out now. I am assuming that Jabs has signed it as Gruppenkommodore which would date the signatures from August 1943 to March 1944 (according to www.ww2.dk )

The Major looks like Sutor, although I am not familiar with his signature.

I have an original Sutor signature from October 1940 and comparing it with this one, can confirm they are the same.

Would you happen to know what position he held in mid '43 to early '44?

I believe he was still a Major at that time, and Geschwader Adjutant.
