The KvK citation is signed by Felix Steiner.

PAB Silber possibly signed by Georg Schönberger (but I don't have an example of his signature to compare against.)

It was a Korp level unit assigned to III SS-Panzer Korps...

It is funny to see WSS soldier with so polish lastname ( Nowak is typical polish lastname and is most popular lastname like Neumann in german language countries or Newman in english language countries ) and more funny to see mistakes with spelling of this lastname ( Nowack - Novak ). I wouldn't suspect that someone with so not german and so polish lastname wouldn't had problems with recruting to WSS.
Guy must came somewhere from Silesia ( Slask ), West Prussia ( Pomorze Gdanskie ), Warteland ( Wielkopolska - Ziemia Lodzka ). Definately had polish roots at some point.

That is indeed the signature of Georg Schönberger, and alongside Dietrich, Steiner and Wisch, that is a really nice set of signatures in a very nice grouping.

With Ralf Tiemann's book on 7./SS-Pz Regt 1 LAH published by Schiffer, there is a good deal of research material available to research this man.

Hi Michael,

Thanks for showing us this very nice set. Rudolf Nowak was, as you can see, a Funkmeister in the 7./SS Pz.Rgt.1 but later also a member 6./SS Pz.Rgt.1. At wars end he was an SS-Oscha. After the war he was a member of the 7. Kompanie Kameradschaft - which also included members of the 6./Kp. He passed away approx. 2003. Attached you will find two images I hope you will enjoy.



The above pic. shows Nowak near Charkow, March 1943, with comrades of the 7.Kp.
Below you see Gerd Stiller and next to him ( I believe to be) Rudi Nowak during a Kompanie Treffen.

Polis last names are very common in Germany - since many decades. Nothing that would have caused trouble in the Thirs Rich.

No, it was not part of s.SS.Pz.Abt.103, however both units were part of the III.SS-Panzerkorps. Wishful thinking though

That's a really nice grouping you have there
