What you have are a group of notes called a short snorter. These were souvenirs made by having people sign the notes. PCGS parent company does have an autograph authentication company PSA.
But you have to have some pretty famous generals to make it worth the expense. If you do not see an Eisenhower or MacArthur or Montgomery or Patton, it may not be worth the expense.
The signature of your run of the mill American WWII general officer (there were several hundred of them) is not going to fetch much.
That having been said, there is value to the cumulative affect of many in the same collection.
I actively collect and research short snorters. If you would like to post clear images of the notes with signatures, I and hopefully the other collective wisdom here can help decipher them. Scans are better than pictures.
The apostille and authentication that SaturnD51 references is like a notary. It is for authenticating a current signature and has nothing to do with trying to authenticate or decipher signatures on a banknote.
