    The upper part says he's supposed to be sent to a non-fighting unit due to being the last son.

    And just as a guess, I think it's crossed out due to being fully released from the army/military.

      Hi all !

      I fully agree with the explanation by Hank on the upper (crossed out) part.

      But in the second part it says :
      "Entfällt lt. HVBl. 44(?) Teil B xxxx etc...)"
      Translates to : Cancelled by order XXX ...

      So the previous order was dismissed and probably therefore crossed out.

      Cheers,
      Archi

          When the war was in it's first years there was a very complicated system in place to protect those fathers with many children, sole surviving sons, etc., but that of course all changed in the end.
