Got hold of what I believe is a Soldbuch for a Flak Gunner who served in Guernsey in the UK Channel Islands along with a map he had at the time.
Problem I have is making sure he definitely served on the island as some pages have been removed and some entries inked out.
I have translated what I can from what is available and I think going by the dates in it and the information shown it looks like he did.
He started off in Flack-abt 29 which I believe most then went into Flak-abt 292 which was posted to Guernsey in 1943. These dates seem to match up with what is in the book.
Appreciate if anyone can see anything else that either backs up him being in Guernsey or perhaps something that says no he did not.
The map is definitely period as looking through it there are no WW2 buildings shown and soldiers name and many markings are on it.
Thanks
Gary
