    My German is pretty rusty to begin with, and the handwriting doesn't make it any easier. I'd be grateful for assistance.

      "Ein vernichteter, brennder russischer Panzer (T 34), der kurz vor meinem Eintreffen von einer Flak 8,8, in Brand geschossen wurde. Ausgang des Kessel Charkow im Mai 1942. Kp. auf dem Weg nach Nory/Nowy (?) Oskol !!!"

        A destroyed, burning russian tank (T-34), that was shot ablaze by a
        FLAK 88 just before my arrival.
        Exit of the Charkow-pocket, may 1942.

            hello Gerdan and all other Translators..

            I have a small Text here to translate.

            Background is..I had a Postcard Album long time ago with lots of photos from Kaiser Wilhelm in Exil in Doorn.
            So I assume the person who made this album must have had some contacts to the Kaisers Family.
            This is one of 2 Postcards that I have left and I tought it would be interesting to see what is written on the back

            Thanks so much
            Andreas

              I will try it as far as I can read it:

              "Berlin-Steglitz, 16.(?). Juni 1943
              Horst Wesselstrasse 18

              Sehr geehrter lieber Dr. Jurke (?) ,- may be the family name is better to read on the address
              Ihnen und Ihrer lieben Gattin wünsche ich ein recht gesundes Pfingstfest.

              Ich wohne jetzt in Steglitz, wie Sie oben auf der Karte sehen - endlich nach langem Suchen ein Zimmer gefunden.

              Beste Grüße
              Ernst-Ludwig ???"

                Thank you very much Gerdan

                So not really a connection to the kaiser Family to read out of this Card

                  Sorry, Andreas, I can see no connection with Kaiser Wilhelm II and his family.

                  May be the second card you own?

                    Andreas,

                    an other question: could you give mit the exact name and addresse of the addressee "Dr. J." - but only when he was living in Berlin in 1943.

                      Gerdan,

                      the other card has no writing on the back

                      the adress on this card is as far as i can read it

                      Dr. Jurke?
                      Berlin Wilmersdorf

                      and it looks like Jupiterplatz??? 17

                        The Berlin addressbook from 1943 is online. Here I found the page for Berlin - Wilmersdorf and the names "Jurke". Sorry, did not find a Dr. Jurke - and could not find "Jupiterplatz" in Berlin-Wilmersdorf. http://adressbuch.zlb.de/viewAdressb...CatalogLayer=5
