Nice additions with interesting presentation, as always. Congratulations !
I have two comments :
-first on this page :



The unit L 50 444 is Flakscheinwerfer Ausbildung Abteilung 5 who seems to have been attached to Luftgau Postamt Paris. That means that it was in France at that time (at least in july 42), and only in the big part southern of the Seine river because northern part of France was attached to Lg. PA Brussels. But this inscription doesn't means he was obligatory in Paris. More, according to M. Holm' site "The Luftwaffe", this training unit is stayed in Germany (Fürth) all the time. Perhaps only few elements came in France ?

-One of the two Flak soldier was Fernsprecher, not gunner. It is written on the little specific paper added in his Sb.

I hope that it helps you.

Great additions, Oriano
It's amazing to see docs from the same unit, even from the same battery in this case!
Both the Soldbuch were signed by the same officer who was at the time the battery commander. This can be clearly seen here:
