    Postcard Translation?

    This was sent to a SS or SA Sturmbahnfuhrer in Wiengarten in 1933 if I am reading the postmark correctly. Goebbels is on the front. Can anyone translate the handwritten text?

          A bit more, although I can not read two words.

          At the top: Rottweil a.N. ( am Neckar)

          Vom Schwarzwald sendet ...?... ...?... dem gesamten Sturm ein "Dreifaches Sieg Heil"

          Auf Wiedersehen. Gruß auch an Adj. (Adjudant) Baier.
          Heil Hitler
          Ant. (Anton) Müller. Buchbachstr.

            So an english approximation would be..

            From the Black Forest...?......?... a "three-way sends victory welfare" to the entire storm Good-bye. Greeting also at (to?) Adj. (Adjudant) Baier.

            So our missing words have some relevence to a Black Forest truppe or something like that? Assuming this is SA - any other input from a historical perspective?

            Thanks to everyone for their input!!

                The person in the postcard with Goebbels is Prince Louis Ferdinand - does anyone else have any pictures of him in uniform? I notice here he has cufftitle and more.. I find it interesting since he was barred from active duty by Hitler as he could have garnered support, and became anti-nazi after that.

                  Actually, the person seated at the table with Goebbels is Auwi, the Hohenzollern Crown Prince August Wilhelm, the fourth son of Kaiser Wilhelm.

                      It isn't August, but the former Crownprinz, and oldest son.

                        Yes, definetly the old Crown Prince-commander at Verdun. Interesting shot as it shows the Nazis linking themselves to the royalists/nationalists in the consolidation of power. Note the Crown Prince is wearing a Stahlhelm badge on his lapel.
