15890

(Mobilmachung-1.1.1940) Luftgau-Nachrichten-Geräte-Kolonne I Luftgau-Nachrichten-Regiment 8,
(2.1.1940-27.4.1940) Geräte-Kolonne Luftwaffen-Nachrichten-Abteilung 2,
(27.1.1942-14.7.1942) Geräte-Kolonne Luftnachrichten-Abteilung 135,
(25.1.1943-31.7.1943) gestrichen,
(24.3.1944-6.11.1944) 4.4.1944 5.(Georg.)Kompanie Eisenbahn-Bau-Pionier-Bataillon 404.

Possibly one of the subsidiary companies? I know I have some FP that has letter suffixes that aren't listed, it's just a further breakdown for when the post reached the unit.

Hi Hank, thanks for your reply...

Problem is that the FP number is used in a Wehrmacht Soldbuch ....

I did read the Luftwaffe list but that dont make much sense considering the
man was infantry soldier...

Clear images of the page the FpNr is on and pages 4 & 17 (unit pages) might help people figure it out.

[PeterPaul]

No entry on page 17 ...

[PeterPaul]

Here goes...


Thank you everybody...

[hucks216]

Do you have a clearer view of the stamp - when zoomed in the quality of the image isn't too good. Does it appear anywhere else in the SB and are there other entries from that time period?

[PeterPaul]

The same stamp appear on the NeXT page, page 23 ,used to vertify a 5 day leave..

Date is 7.7 1942 ...

The Nummer clearly says: 15890 A

[PeterPaul]

Im really sorry you Guys ----


I AM MISTAKEN !!


The number says 15899 A which would be the Infanteria Regiment 430 ..

And this unit is mentioned on his previcious units list !!


Thanks for helping out you Guys, great stuff

[PeterPaul]

Now that I have you Guys watching this thread, could somebody help me
translate the soldiers Awards on page 22 ??


It says KvK with swords and then the Wound badge,black I think ??

But the last entry I have no idea ...

The first two you have correctly identified, the third is "Band zur Ostmedaille verliehen am 8.8.42".

[PeterPaul]

Thank you Pauke ..


Band Zur Ostmed. what is that ?? Just the Winterschlacht im Osten medal ??

[pauke]

trans

yes

[Eric JB]

......only the ribbon for the winter war medal.

[PeterPaul]

Only the ribbon and not the medal ??

But why ?? Did the ribbon and medal not come together, as a set ??
