    you have a troop ID for Unteroffizier Bernhard Johann who was stationed at Illesheim for a short time and also at Giebelstadt by Würzburg. The Army version is on blue wax cloth. The second document is a verification and ID that he was "bombed out" with the quarters being totally destroyed. The other names are probably his wife and child. The third ID is his membership card to VDA (Association for Germans in foreign countries). Apparently he was also a professional soldier due to the Reichstreubund Ausweis and this is a membership ID for former professional soldiers. The Soldatenbund EV ID is for veterans and supporters of veterans.

        The green truppenausweis is for reserve status...in other words, they do their two week training every year, for which this was issued. Blue was for full-time soldiers. The truppenausweis was used prior to the Soldbuch. The Kriegsmarine continued to use just the truppenausweis until 1941 and some General Staff members until 1944.

          He served with the Deutsche Luftwaffe (German Air Force), Horstkompanie,

          in Giebelstadt and Illesheim. Both are German airfields.
