Art luger but who was it issued to?

Thanks but the evidence suggests that early in the war, unit markings were put on them but as the war progressed it was recognized that this added to intelligence information and the practice ceased. I doubt the Australian who captured it wrote a german name on it. Other contributors have advised the name is likely H J Wilhausen or Wilhauser. I think this was written by the units armourer on issuing the firearm to the soldier.
