My First Grouping with Wehrpass and Documents, EK2 Holder and IAB

[Stephen Stout]

I have an holder to an EK2 here is pictures of the grouping. I was wondering if I could have help in finding out his full history and rank (I don't know that much German).

I will post additional documents.

It's a nice complete grouping. His discharge permit is particularly nice.

I think you can probably see for yourself that his rank was unteroffizier upon his wounding and discharge.

Very nice and complete group Stephen, great to have the medals and dogtag with the documents.
Thanks for showing

Nice group,If you have a look on www.lexicon-der-Wehrmacht.de you should
be able to find out info about his unit and their battles.Its in German but google
translates the pages.

Cheers

Sorry been busy to reply but when people see so much and you want to know what it is, then not many people reply. However, in a nut shell:

The group belongs to Theodor (Theo) George Fluck, born 4.12.1919 in Niederselters.

He primarily served with Infanterie Regiment 352 of 246 Infanterie Division:

He was trained as a messenger with the Kompanie Trupp and as mentioned by Simon his final rank was Unteroffizier.

He was wounded 20.4.1943 by infantry bullet through the right thigh and left upper arm. As a result, he was awarded the Black Wound Badge. After convalescing he was discharged from the Wehrmacht on 16.10.1944.

The red Ausmusterungsschein was issued to explain why he was no longer or not in the Wehrmacht.

The Iron Cross 2nd Class citation is signed by Generalleutnant und Div.Kdr. Maximilian Siry RK.

Interesting, are these numbers on the shoulder board? 115 or US (Unteroffizierschule) ?

This unit does not appear in his Wehrpaß. These are pre-war boards...so is this him or could it be a brother!?!?!
