Good day all,
I finally got round to framing up this lovely portrait of a Lehr Geschwader Obergefreiter, and noticed a very feint pencil annotation on the reverse..
Most of it is pretty legible, but I’m having trouble with the word before the date..
Thus far, I have: Menke, Obergefreiter / ???? , 42
I assume this to be the location, which could give me a clue as to his Geschwader or Staffel (with only four to choose from, I may be in with a chance)!
The reason I suggested Bremen is the ‘Sloppy flow’ of the script, but I’m still not sure to be honest. The first letter doesn’t look like a B should, but the rest sort of fits.
See if you can make any headway using this handy chart.
