    5 Wehrpasses - all MG qualified - all from the same unit!

    I recently acquired all five of these Wehrpasses from the son of the US veteran who brought them home after the war. What is so interesting about them is that they all served in the same unit, 8./ Grenadier Regiment 765. The other thing is that they are all M.G. 34 qualified, and some have more weapons qualifications than the others, there are even two who were grenadelauncher qualified. Most all of them only served on the Western Front. One served on the Russian front as well and has 29 logged combat entries to his credit. Some of them are decorated or were wounded.

    I only put up the most interesting of the entries but wanted to share them here as I plan on putting them on the e-stand but I don’t want to separate them. They all came together, shouldn’t they all stay together?
