Thanks Frederic,

I forgot about that excellent work!!

Seeing as they are stood in front of a He 111, that makes the units:

Stab, III./KG 55 (Jun 40 – Jun 41);
I., II./KG 55 (Jun-Jul 40);
I./KG 27 (Jun-Jul 40);
4.(F)/Aufkl.Gr. 121 (Jul, Aug 40 - ?);

I am now thinking the signature could be that of Oblt. Jürgen Bartens, Staka 8/KG 55.

With that said, the Ausweis only has checks up to the the second quarter of 1941 (April-June) and nothing further. I can not find a Paul Stäudle in the German War Graves site or in any Quartermaster returns....perhaps he just stopped flying?
