A photo of previous unit page and next page.

The unit is Polizei Regiment 15 but what are the two letters in the quotations and what do they stand for?

Dear Lee Luke,


"v. B." means Pol.Rgt. "von Braunschweig", the later (new) SS-Pol.Rgt. 15 was formed from that ad-hoc Regiment in 1943.

Signed by Hauptmann d.Sch. Josef Bendl


Would be interesting to see more from that document

With all the best yours Roland

Thanks, Roland!
