He was a WWI vet that was probably a reservist and never called up. Though he's declared fit (tauglich) in 1937 hes classified as Landwher I, ie homeland duty. Interestingly in 1943 his fitness status is raised to 'kreigsverwendungsfahig', ie fit for active duty though his rating is still the same.

hospital in Vélu (France):

24.9.1916 he was wounded again by an artillery shell (left Hand). It must have happened at the

battle of the Somme because he participated in the battle of the Somme the date he was wounded.
