    I'm probably not much help because I can't decipher the entire thing but in the first one I can read "2. Soldatenfriedhof in XXXXXXXX 30.9.42 ????". The place name (XXXXXXXX) is a strange mix of letters... looks like "Jungbhloino" but that makes absolutely no sense.

    I'm even less help with the second one. I can read "25/9/42 † O.Gfr. Behr ??????? ???? in [Jungbhloino?]" followed by a line of scribble in which I can see nothing.

    Hopefully that helps a little bit.

      Jason,
      quite good... The place name seems really odd. I read Turkbh?ino, so only one letter missing but still no idea where this place could be...

      The 2nd line in the 1st pic is "30.9.42 phot" = photo taken 9 Sep 42

      In the 2nd line in the 2nd pic I read "Ehrensalve"

      Maybe a look at the front of the pics could help

      good night

          The last line of the 2nd photo could be written in a special German shorthand

          or stenography - which I do not understand. Sorry.
