You have to be extremely cautious with WW2 Sütterlin handwriting. Apart from showing individual handwritings in any case, the Sütterlin script in the early 40s was in a status of transition. The NSDAP regime abolished the Sütterlin and "Schwabacher Fraktur" in 1941 for ideological reasons and replaced it with a more modern handwring. Not only at the schools, but also in every-day life.

Thus the "old, conservative hares" of the Luftwaffe wrote a more or less "clean" Sütterlin", whereas the younger "rookies" chose to write a Sütterlin mingled with the more modern letters of the "Normalschrift". The Nazis wanted them to do so - most people don´t know this.
