I stand Corrected. date of the 23.6.04 could be a clerical mistake. along with the shaky signature are the reasons I viewed this with caution.

23.06.04 is the date of birth of the recipient, so there is no problem with that.

The shaky signature is a good point, though, and there is something else that concerns me:

The duty position appears to be given as "Amtscher". This should be "Amtschef".
Interestingly, it is this last letter ("f") that was covered by the signature and thus illegible in the Waffen-SS waterfinder document posted in the earlier thread.
To be honest, it makes me wonder whether the above document was copied from the earlier one by someone who did not know the correct last letter to go in that word.

Apart from that, as far as I know, Prof. Walther Wüst remained the Kurator of the Ahnenerbe until the end of the war, so there should not be somebody else's signature on the above document.

(Edit: Added comparison of the "Amtschef" lines)
