Unbek 7.jpg
From Oakleaf Militaria.
The page identifies this soldier as Erich Schmitt. The signature apparently ratifies it.
I only have two Erich Schmitts in my sources.
Erich Schmitt of the Luftwaffe. (AufklGr11).
Erich Schmitt, last rank Obergefreiter (GrRg118).
Neither match.
Mystery.

Thank you, jrcol.
The only reference I have to an unofficial Hans von Majer, Luftwaffe RKT, is from Fallschirmtruppe, but I don't know his "einheit".
Sorry for taking your time, and thank you in any case.
Jaime.

I agree that it is Adolf Wolf. Confusing that the photo is inscribed Wolff, not Wolf, and there is a Wilhelm Wolff RKT commander of Flak Rgt. 37
