I think so, Chris.

It is very difficul to read the second desease. It seems to be a typical medícal expression.

Thank you Gerdan

I think the second one is Bauchschuss - shot in the stomach!

31a is wounds as a result of bullets.

Thanks Ian.

Thanks Ian.

Well he was in the town Hospital at Orel and War hospital 4/609, however the latter I can only find the location in 1944....

I doubt he was wounded whilst with IEB 316!

Krakau near Oberost, then again in Augsburg; 1.10.1942 divided into Ersatz- und Reserve-Bataillon;

Hi Gerdan

is it Eye inflammation?

Regards
Chris

Also known as Keratoconjunctivitis which is dryness of the conjunctiva and cornea which may cause the cornea of the eye to become thickened and cause a loss of visual acuity

Commonly known as Dry Eye Syndrome

Thanks Ian.

I am learning all the time.

So he got his wounds with 246.

[Ian Jewison]

Could be....

From what I just posted, you can see that I. Bataillon, Inf.Rgt. 246 had replacements from IEB 316.

The Kriegsstammrollennummer (Personal roster number) ends with 41 which is a good indication that he joined that unit in 1941.

What you should do is write out a time line ie. take the dates and units and put them in number order....that way you can get a picture of where he was when!

Problem with Heer and SS Soldb******252;cher, there is no dates of transfer to and from a unit, unlike Luftwaffe and Kriegsmarine!

Where would the best place to research where 246 were?
