I am far for sure regarding this but Hitlers and Himmlers signature are looking quite convincing to me.
Best regards,

Wasn't Himmler known for signing in green ink? He might not have always had access to a green pen, but it's worth thinking about.

May I ask about the background of this image, i.e. where is it from, what is this paper item etc.?
One thing that immediately jumps out at me is that von Rundstedt's rank is written in English, by the way.
I am really no expert on this and I have never seen most of these signatures before
but I notice that some of the names seem to use a very similar style.
I circled the Ms in red and the Rs or Ps in blue that to me look like
they might have been done by the same hand.

I was addicted to the "Hokey-Pokey" but I've turned
myself around.
It would be great to have more background info about the document.
This was probably not a personal stylistic quirk of Himmler: Restricting specific ink colors to certain departments/individuals/purposes was a common practice in German adminstrative systems. (Speaking of green ink: Where I work, it was once strictly reserved for use by the internal auditors. With less and less handwriting and physical paperwork being done, nowadays there is no more need for such fine regulations.) Obviously, such rules were only to be adhered to for internal paperwork.
Hooray for Andreas. I am sure most have no idea what he is writing here, but it manifests great wisdom.
