According to my info, R295 would be assigned to Ofw. Hans Strippel.
Nr. 355b is assigned to Grossadmiral Dr. h.c. Raeder. This suppose that there would also be a Nr355 and a 355a which would both show Raeder.

Here is a scan of 355b

Thanks Ralf
Would you have the full caption (i.e. the rank and possibly the first name when it is printed on the obverse side) to provide for these 3 postcards ?
Thanks in advance

Hi Denis,

Would you have card #s R136 and R147 on your list? I've been trying to list the KC cards as well but can't seem to find these two (as well as many in the upper R200 range.)

Thanks,
Rob
