    Wehrpass entry (Art der Entlassung)

    Hi,

    In the last document group I obtain were a wehrpass, soldbuch, arbeitsbuch and some other docs.

    I'm now dealing with the wehpass and I can't figure out what is written down at some point.

    Maybe anyone can help me?

    Greetings,
    Bart

    Hi Bart,

    to me it looks like "UK-Stellung". "uk" would mean "unabkömmlich", or reserved, a status assigned to experts in the military and civil industry to prevent them from being called up by the Wehrmacht. Interesting entry!

      Hi Alexander,


      The guys accually was called up, he served till 12th July 1944 as you see at the top of the page.

      I was thinking about NK-Stellüng, don't know what that should means tough.

      As far as I can make up from the soldbuch he suffered injuries and was released from duty after that, but where can I find additional info?

        Bart,

        the "uk" status was at times only given after having served in the military. The injuries he suffered during his service may be related to this.

        Does it say anything about the job he held prior to his military service? I would assume he was a skilled worker and after having suffered injuries that kept him from further serving in the military was posted to his old employment again.

        That's actually the most likely scenario as obtaining a "uk" status for a soldier who was actually fit for service was nearly impossible this late during the war.

          Before he enlisted (1942) he worked at a iron-/steel factory. His profession was within "Edelstahl Bau-abteilung"
          In 1944 he started again at the same factory but I can't read what his profession was then.

          I think your right about the uk story then.

          Another question, do you recommend any books dealing with wehrpasses/soldbuchs?

            Sorry Bart, I don't know a lot about Soldbücher and cannot recommend any literature. But I'm sure some of the knowledgeable people on this forum will jump in on this thread to suggest some good books.

              Ok Alexander,
              Thanks anyway for your help. I'll see what books the other members suggests.
