Soldbuch IMFUNGEN Help me out.

[Leutnant G.M.W.]

I thought about posting this in the re-enacting section but I figured people here probably know more.

Page 9 in the Soldbuch lists inoculations.

I have taken up re-enacting and I was wondering what did the "average" soldiers inoculations look like. Ive seen pleanty of Soldbuchen but was wondering if anybody could give me some pointers before I fill mine out. I dont want to just copy an existing Soldbuch without information.

[Leutnant G.M.W.]

Anybody out there?

[Ian Jewison]

It depended on what theatre you were serving in and whether or not you contacted a discease!

Russia, Africa, summer or winter, hot or cold etc.

I can't post any examples at the moment but will run through a few books after I have had my dinner!

Thanks.

How about blitzkrieg Low Countries and France 1940-1941.
French occupation 1941-1944.
Back into Germany by 1945.

No diseases contracted.

Here's an example of a holder in the following units/theatres:

14.6.1940. Served with Wehrkreis Ersatz Depot I/XII in Mainz, Wehrmeldeamt Altenkirchen, Wehrbezirkskommando Neuwied, 1943 to Oberkommando der Wehrmacht, Stabsquartier, Wehrmachtführungsstab Zentral, Landes Verteidigung, Amt Ausland Abwehr, Abwehrschule Lehr Regiment Kurfürst part of the training element for Division Brandenburg which was subordinate to Amt Ausland Abwehr OKW and finally 1945 with gemischt Panzer Abteilung, SS Brigade Gross in Berlin.<O</O

Here's another example of a member of:

Gruppe Geheime Feldpolizei 633 (also Abwehr Stelle I/XI) as a driver, 1940/41 in France, 1943 to Nachschubstab z.b.V. 372 an independent unit in Russia under 4 Panzer Armee, Heeres Gruppe Süd, 1944/45 Italy.

Here's a Kavallerie Ritterkreuzträger who fought in Poland and France, 1941 to Russia and ended up 1945 in Berlin.

As you can see he has no vaccinations in 1939!

[Ian Jewison]

And finally, another Ritterkreuzträger, this time a Panzer Commander....as you can see he has a lot of typhoid injections!!

Unfortunately he was killed in 1942.


So.......there's a few examples you can mix and match and make your Soldbuch how you want!
