The lot includes his WWI Militarpass which lists him as a POW of the French, his Nazi era Arbeitsbuch, his DAF dues book with stamps through 1940, numerous documents from his German employers (machinist), letters from the US State Department and interestingly a set of US Army Orders awarding him with a Good Conduct Medal. This would be a fun research project. 19 pieces total.

German Franco Prussian War Landwehr Identity Book & Document Set
(5 photos)
$145.00
|
 Original era manufacture. 1868 dated Militair-Pass to a soldier in Reserve Landwehr Battalion Nr.40, Coeln. There are numerous handwritten entries to be seen, however the old handwriting is a bit difficult to read. Also included is the document for the 1870-1871 Campaign Medal in steel and the document for the 1797-1897 Centennary Medal. All show handling and age with the 1870-1871 document being a bit tattered on its upper edge. Good research fodder.

 Original era manufacture. We had purchased this little booklet in a pile of assorted militaria recently. While looking through it this original 86th division shoulder patch fell out, cool. It shows mothing but appears to have been removed from a uniform. The information inside the cover shows a soldier who served in the 3rd Pioneer Infantry Regiment during WWI. Looks like one page is missing from the booklet.
