Help identify ships on two WW2-era postcards

Hello, first-time poster here. I hope I picked the right sub for this.

I got these two postcards at a flea market. My question is: what ships are they? If it’s not possible to identify the exact ships, then at least what type of ships are they?

All I can say that they are German.

German postcard from 1917

Hello! Before anyone asks, yes, this is yet another repost of a single postcard that I originally included together with several others. I probably shouldn't have done that, since that post could have been quite overwhelming.

For all responses, I would like to thank in advance.

Help with a german marriage record from 1897

Hello. I would like to request help with this marriage record.

What i need the most is (if they are on the record):
Full names of both spouses
Dates of birth and ages
Occupations and addresses/places of residence
Date and place of marriage
Parents’ names, if available, ideally with the same details as for the spouses
Witnesses’ names

If the record isn't of the best quality, I've included a link to it below:
Page 1: on the right, No. 25

Postcard from 1917

Hello! Before anyone asks, yes, this is a repost of a single postcard that I originally included together with several others. I probably shouldn't have done that, since the post could have been quite overwhelming. But, going back to the point:

I know that on the postcard (the area underlined in green), it most probably says “Juni 1917.”

What I’m interested in is the list of (presumably) ranks and surnames/names on the left, as well as the rest of the text on the right.

Image 1 - Full unedited
Image 2 - text underlined
Image 3 and 4 - close ups of left and right

Hello! It's me again with another envelope that I need help with.

What I can read on the envelope is "Feldpost" at the top, and on the second image I can make out "Abs. Gefr. ..., 45012."

Help with a german letter from 1940

(Related to this post)

Hello!

I'd like to ask for some help transcribing this letter from 1940. It comes from my personal collection.

The letter was scanned at 600 dpi, so hopefully the image quality is good enough. I'd be very grateful for any help with the transcription.

Also, please excuse me if it isn't actually Kurrent or Sütterlin. I'm still learning how to tell those scripts apart from German cursive.

Thanks in advance!

Need help with words on this envelope. [WWII]

Hello! I have several letters from World War II (Like the World War I postcards I collect, I also collect those.)

But getting to the point:

Image 1 is the whole envelope, unedited.

Image 2 and 3 are the ones I need help with. The words outlined in green are the ones I think I've managed to identify.

From top to bottom:

Feldpost

Weber

in Peiskretscham (town that today's Pyskowice, in Silesia, Poland)

The word outlined in yellow I'm not sure about, I think it says "Herr.".

The words outlined in red are the ones I couldn't identify and need help with.

As for the third image, I believe the number is most likely "10965." But i couldn't identify the sentece before it.

[German > English] Three postcards from WW1

I acquired these three postcards today on a antique fair, and would like to know what they say.

Postcard 1 are images 1-3

Postcard 2 are images 4-6

Postcard 3 are images 7-9

Also does anyone know what the S.B. 2.Komp. I.E./70 means in the third postcard?

After research I came to conclusions that S.B. meant Soldatenbrief, and that I.E./70 most likely means Infanterie-Ersatz-Bataillon no. 70 but I'm not sure about it.

For all responses I would like to thank you in advance.
