EK 2d class
Krimschild
Romanian Errinerungsmedallie
Ostmedal
Wound badge black
are the award entries.
Born Sep. 1913, Catholic, and single when book was issued.
Post #4 is pre-war Exercises (war games) with Inf. Rgt. 24, and mobilisation; total accrued time was 2 years, 2 months, 10 days.
Looks like post #5 is the clarification that the book was issued as a replacement (zweitschrift) due to loss of the original caused by enemy actions. That's the gist of it, if not word-for-word.

Deggenedorf,...
Hank gave the sense in a correct way.
