    Exactly the German word name "Ratte" I can not identify but it could be someting like "Rattov" or so. But we can be sure that the writer means the Russian Polikarpov a/c.

                  Can somebody help with the last entries on this page? I know the first is EK2 and the second is Ost front. The others look communications oriented (belongs to a Luftwaffe Funker).

                  Cheers.

                    the last entry:


                    "Funkmess-Prüfung B am 2.3.1943 bestanden -

                    F.d.R. (Für die Richtigkeit), O.U., den 22.3.1943 sign.

                        Thanks! I'm slowly getting the hang of deciphering these.

                          Hello Gerdan, or anyone else,

                          I have tried myself using the german "letters guide" you posted for me......but I am completely lost on this one. If you could give it a try for German to English, I would be very grateful. Even if you can only translate in German, it would be a huge help. It looks like it was written pretty poorly though. Thank you my friend.

                            Here is the "whole" reverse. It is also signed on the front from who I believe to be the panzermann himself. I cannot make out the name though either. Thanks Gerdan
