June 5 1944, German postcard...

[Cheeko]

Went to the market this weekend and came back with this interesting peace of paper bought from a military seller.

I got the enveloppe and the postcard.

Believe the picture on the card is maybe the son of the soldier.

It would be very interesting if someone is able to translate it !!!

Here are the pictures!

I found recentrly that the letter in written in Sütterlinschrift.

Nobody who speak German can translate it?

Just a quick note concerning the Carl Werner published postcard. Werner published all manner of themes on postcards, military, woman, children, etc. I possess this same card in my collection.

The card depicts a child who is no relation to the soldier to whom the card was sent. This postcard was used to send a message to the soldier from his at home correspondent.

München, 5. Juni 1944

Mein lieber Bub,

noch immer habe ich kein Lebenszeichen von Dir erhalten und bin deshalb sehr unruhig. Übermorgen sind es acht Wochen dass Du fort bist. Wie hast Du Dich eingelebt? Die ersten Tage sind sehr bitter, das weiß ich am besten. Mit einem kleinen Bu... muß ich Dich... ,denn.... Du ... Dich, Heinzel Vor ich mit meiner Arbeit beginne, schreibe ich diese Zeilen, dann hab ich mehr Freude an allem. Ich hab Dich so unendlich lieb, mein Bub, glaub es mir und sehr sehr viel Sehnsucht.
Einen lieben langen Kuss und viele Grüße Deine Mutter (?)

This is the German text as can I read it.

I made an auto-translation on internet and there's the translation.

I know it's not perfect but...we can have an Idea about the message in.

"Munich, 5th June, 1944

My dear boy,

still I have received no sign of life from you and am very worried, therefore. The day after tomorrow these are eight weeks that you are away. How have you settled down? The first days are very bitter, I know this best of all. With a small Bu ... I must you ..., because.... You... You, Heinzel before me begins with my work, I write these lines, then I have more joy in all. I love you so endlessly"

I also found with the feldpostnummer that the soldier was part of the "Stab II u. 5.-8. Kompanie/Grenadier-Regiment "

Simon,
your auto-translation via internet is not bad. I did not have time enough to do the translation when I wrote down the German text but I am content with "your" translation. it's OK.
I regret that I could not identify some of the words written in Sütterlin.
