It´s a "Bü". His name was Büttner!

Hope you apologize my correction Dave, I think you don´t have a German console on your PC!?

Thanks Rainer---you are of course right --but I would'nt know how to put the dots above the 'U' I still type with one finger and have to look carefully even doing that...

Cheers,
Dave.

So how does one add/produce the umlaut???

Windows usually has a "Character Map" listed under "All Programs", "Accessories", then "System Tools". The Character Map contains all sorts of unusual letters and other symbols not normally found on a regular keyboard.

I got this from the Map. ü

Of course, it does slow down one's typing until you get used to using it.

Press the Alt key, then type 0220 on the number-pad for Ü.
Or Alt plus 0252 for ü.

Note that there are other Alt codes for more German letters and French, etc.

Another way is to, whenever you see a special character like ü, copy and paste it into a Word document. Then whenever you want to use it you can copy and paste it back into where ever you need it.
