Günter Jahn – Kommandant of “U-596”

Original Postwar Signature on a Postwar Photo of Günter Jahn. Kapitänleutnant Günter Jahn (27.09.1910 † 12.04.1992) earned the Ritterkreuz on April 30, 1943 as Kapitänleutnant und Kommandant of U-596. Good Condition.

“Kapitänleutnant Jahn has so far sunk 8 freighters and 1 tanker (with 51730 GRT) as a U-Boat captain. He has also sunk a ‘Bridgewater’-class escort ship and torpedoed a further 3 freighters (with 15000 GRT).”

 

Provenance: This signature comes from one of the largest postwar signature collection I’ve ever commissioned. This collection was started by a Waffen-SS Veteran, Werner H., in the 1950’s until he passed away.
