Today I received the Holy Grail....my Opa's Wehrpas, basically his service record book when he served in the German Army in WW2.... He hid it in the attic of his mothers house when he was discharged and it was presumed to be lost when the house was demolished....someone in his family apparently found it (not sure when)...and gave it to my mom when she and my dad went to Poland(to visit relatives who gave her the wehrpas) and Germany three weeks ago for vacation..my mom gave it to me today...it was better than winning a million dollars in the lottery....this booklet was missing in action for over 70 years, now it's in my collection along with many other documents from my grandparents living in Germany during WW2....My Opa was also big into sports in the 20's and 30's and there is a school in his hometown of Grossdammer that has a few rooms dedicated to a museum, and it houses his certficates and awards he won in various sporting events.The school made an announcement to the students when my mom and dad arrived to view his items and all the student and teachers came down to see the "visitors from America, my mom took pictures of all his awards and stuff and I will be posting those soon...
