Portrait Photo: Subject & Text Identification
Here is a postcard size photo portrait of a Heer officer wearing his EK1 (1914); EK2 (1939) Spange and KVK 1st Class w/Swords. His face is chiseled and scarred...perhaps fencing or battle scars?
The reverse of the photo card is blank, except for printed text in the middle dividing line which I think may be the printer's name and a number: LEONAR 442.
Can anyone perhaps identify this officer and decipher the cursive at the bottom, please? All feedback will be appreciated.
Regards,
John
PS: JoeW has provided this feedback (thanks!):
"Seems to me to be signed by a doctor, an Oberstabsartz + Chief ?. The first two lines are a dedication for something in his hospital time? Feldlaz ? Signed by a Dr."

About number 2:
The unit number is 531, not 331. Its mentioned a few more times in the Soldbuch.
I think it has to do with a post-war unit.
This guy was a student engineer before the war, and in the war he was a trained Pionier Leutnant (but commanded a Volksgrenadier radfahr zug in the Ardennes).I'm collecting anything related to the towns Castricum and Bakkum during WWII.
