Help with translating German script

Hi guys, Have been sent two images today of a Luftwaffe gunner, on the reverse is some German script which I would very much like translated. Not sure if this guy was killed or not?

Regards

Melvin

I though it could be Heinz Schellenburg.

In brackets after the first signature it looks like »(z.zt. Briefpartner)«, which I think would be "currently pen friend" (or correspondent).

Re: Help with translating German script

I'd think it's Hellenburg ... the first letter of the surname is the same like the first letter ot the first name "Heinz".

Best regrads
Rasmussen
