    Original Wehrpass or not?

    Hi guys,

    What do you think of this Wehrpass?
    Somehow I don't trust it with the entries of battles he was in..
    What do you guys think and say?











    Many thanks in advance !

    Oma,

    I have no problems with the battle entries, written and glued in.

      I've also seen this one for sale; it's an original but note it's not a Holland or Battle of the Bulge related Wehrpass as advertised. He only re-entered an active unit 31st of March 1945, hence the crossed out battle listing.

        Is it unusual for a soldier specially trained in communications to also be trained on the MG-34, MG-42 and Panzerfaust?

          IMO, nothing wrong with this one. About your question, of course it's not usual but possible.

            So actually this Wehrpass is original but the last entries are not of where he fought? If this is the case I won't be bidding on the item anymore.
            Would like to have a Wehrpass of someone who actually did fight there.

            Thanks

              Oma,

              Most often those combat lists were made for the entire division, and when one wasn't present or active during some actions and or battles, those entries were often crossed out, although it happened that they didn't cross them out at all.

              Also a communication guy and a real battle fighting soldier don't go that well together.

              yours friendly
