    Wehrpass entries help...

    Hi, I have a few entries in this Wehrpass that I'd like to double check and some I need help with altogether.

    Any help would be great.

    On the first is the entry for religion just Evanglist?

    On the second photo, what is the fathers occupation please? Cherricker?

      On the first, could someone please tell me the meaning of the entries on the RAD page, I never have understood these, ie, when did he start, finish labour service etc?

      Second photo, what is the entry underneath Gefallen 18/05 and why would the date have been changed?
