Keep going!
So, how many EK1s in all the books so far?
Man, I would LOVE to do a statistical analysis on all your stuff.
Are most of the books to men in Ersatz and landwehr battalions?

Joe,

That is a duplicate copy of a preliminary EKII document. It's to Krankenträger August Steffan, Sanitätskompagnie Nr. 83. It's authorized by a Stabsarzt (no name given).

Joe,

Congratulations! You must have had some help with this task, as I don't think that many documents show up on Ebay in three year's time.

It sounds like you are going to keep going, so good luck with that.

Regards,
Chip
