"FK 1039" appears to refer to Feldkommandantur 1039. Brief bit about that at https://www.lexikon-der-wehrmacht.de/Gl ... rungFK.htm

91 Corpsgruppe may refer to https://www.lexikon-der-wehrmacht.de/Gl ... IKorps.htm , "Sal." may refer to "Salonika" where this corps apparently had its headquarters for a period.

ETA "395" refers to Oberfeldkommandantur 395, also located in Salonika.

https://www.lexikon-der-wehrmacht.de/Gl ... ungOFK.htm

OFK 395 staff appears to have been the personnel source for the staff of "Korpsgruppe Saloniki", which later was designated as 91. Armeekorps:
1944 wurde der Stab in Korpsgruppe Saloniki umbenannt. Am 7. August 1944 bildete er dann das Generalkommando LXXXXI. Armeekorps.

The information you have provided is very useful and valuable, thank you very much.

In the second note can you recognize something ?

Thank you from the bottom of my heart !

@StavrosGR

I'm not good at reading handwriting. Looks like a name "E??? W. Ott", Oberleutnant, 15? reg. (regiment?) Pan.gr

"Pan.gr" -- Panzergrenadier? Panzergruppe? Something else? There was a 152. Panzergrenadier Regiment, but it was not in Greece according to "lexicon der Wehrmacht".

Cheers

Stavros, what I read from your second scan:

C. S. / D. G. G
91 Corpsgruppe Sat.
395 Ober. Kommant.
FK 1039 / Mil. St.


Maybe, this will help you, I took the liberty of tweaking your second scan a bit, and sharpening it slightly.
