    Deciphering Help Needed!

    Hi,

    I'm just finishing researching a wehrpass to an officer in Gren Regt 580 and I'm having trouble deciphering the cause of his death. I've attached a couple of scans. I can read all of the entry except the third word which happens to be the most important!
    Any help gratefully accepted.
    Cheers,
    Gary.

    Hello Gary:
    the word is "Hauptverbandplatz" or main dressing station/main aid station. As you know the inscription does not indicate the nature of the wound but only states when and where he died .

      Thanks Bernhard!
      It was the 'a' in Haupt and the dodgy 'p's (i thought they were 'g's) that threw me.
