Re: Signatures Help in KG76 Soldbuch

I knew that I'd seen a similar signature to the first one shown on the bottom of Pg 2. I originally thought it was similar to how Felix Steiner started his surname (but this was discounted when I was actually able to compare the two) but then I realised it looks like how the signature seen on the decorative Schnellboot citations begins - Raeder (not THAT Raeder). So - as that looks to start with a 'von Ra...' I'd say that it is Helmuth von Raven who won the DKiG as a Major with II/KG 51 on the 24th Sept 1942.
