Yes, that's it! But, Narva with "v".

I read "Narwa" as written to give the phonetic sound in German "Narva".

I read "Narwa" as written to give the phonetic sound in German "Narva".

I do not think that the one, who wrote Narva Front, didn't know how to spell it. He must've seen it many times on military maps.

So, just as an attempt. Not quite sure, though. The upper two Nachnamen look so similar, you would think they're the same.

I read there, like others, Narwa.

There is written a combination of Kurrent/Sütterlin and normal latin script.

a and r are combined in the word Narwa, like o and n in the wordpart front. It is not helpful, to compare such a combination of Kurrent and latin script only with the Kurrent script.

This is my very personal view.

It looks like "Narwa" to me as well. This is not really a problem; both spelling variants - "Narva" and "Narwa" can be found in period German documents.
