    It also could include money and bottles of wine/champagne...no doubt what was available at the time!

    I have some letters somewhere regarding the issue and contents of a Führerpake.

    Jeff actually wrote an article on his webpage some time ago about them!

        Rob, I tried to search for more info about your soldbuch in the ktb of the 88 korps but didn't find anything so far. (too much pages)

          Daniele,
          The Fuhrerpaket was issued to returning non-wounded soldiers at specific main train stations (I have a list somewhere). It was issued to men on-leave from areas outside of Germany. They could be on leave, military escorts of transport convoys, those awarded a medal for heoism, or those that had a family bombed out. Wounded soldiers were issued a "Sonderlebensmittlekarte" which they received at the hospital and contained money and coupons to recieve the Fuhrerpaket when they reached Germany. Sometimes you may also see an entry in the Soldbuch "for Infantry Kampfer."
