[erichcraciun]

I just found these two at the Fleamarket this weekend. Though nothing to extrordinary, both were filled out long after 8. May.

Another Hungarian Soldbuch

Here is the temporary Soldbuch for the Hungarian Soldier Elek Kálmán. This Ersatz-Soldbuch is just four pages long and filled out in Hungarian.

It is interesting to note that the current unit is listed as Infanterie Regiment 93 – which was part of Feldherrnhalle 2 which broke out of Budapest in 1945. Whether Kálmán was actually a part of this unit that broke out of Budapest, or was as a Displaced Person, put into that unit, I am not sure.

Interesting, for me, none the less.
