yes Douglynn, that is the sort of information he got.
you don't show us other pages of the Soldbuch but from the stamps/entries we can see:

- 8.(leichte) Flakausbildungs Kompanie
- Marine Landseschutzen Abteilung
- 22. Marine Bord Flak Abteilung

So it looks like he got some training with the Flak.

22. Marine Bord Flak Abteilung was based in Triest-Geignano. The unit would have supplied men for anti aircraft duties aboard ships to and from the local area.
