Post your "translation needed" here

Can anybody help me with these please?

Thanks Hank and Gerdan

I hope anybody can also read the river name in first picture

I don't think the missing word is the name of a river. It looks more like two numbers: 13 /116
These could mean 13th company of the 116th infantry regiment (FPN 22923). But there are also other possible regiments 116.

In general, it would help a lot for deciphering that kind of almost indecipherable picture descriptions if we, the translators, saw the photos.

I wonder could it be "über die Creuse" = Creuse river in France?

Great, cesky67, now the puzzle is complete. It is the river Creuse and it is the 13th company of the IR 116.

Take a look here, where you can find a report about RKT Hans Becker, who was exactly in the 13th company/IR 116 before the war. He crossed (as member of the 2nd company/IR 116, though) the Creuse in a zodiac boat. So it's clear that the 13th company also followed. Becker got his Knight's Cross for his fighting in France.

http://www.389id.de/Personen/Christi...haus/IR116.htm

Im Zuge der Mobilmachung vom 26.08.1939 kommt H. Becker in die 2. Kompanie des Regiments, nachdem er zuvor zur 13. (IG) Kompanie gehörte. Während des Frankreich- Feldzuges zum Führer der Kompanie ernannt, bewährte er sich bei den Abwehrkämpfen im Brückenkopf Amiens, sowie bei weiteren Kämpfen seines Bataillons. Während der schweren Kämpfe um die Ortschaft Remiencourt schwamm Becker als erster, trotz Feindabwehr an das andere Ufer, nachdem der Angriff vor dem Noye- Bach liegen blieb. Auch beim Übergang über die la Creuse befand er sich im ersten Schlauchboot und vernichtete mit dem ersten Stosstrupp feindliche Feuerstellungen. [...] Für seine erfolgreichen Einsätze während der Schlacht um Frankreich erhielt Becker am 28.11.1940 das Ritterkreuz.

Thank you, Freggel, for the photo (after my post yesterday I had found it in another thread).
So the complete description of your photo is:
Übergang von
13/116

At first your guy was wounded "Granats Splitter rechter Arm" - shell slinter right forearm
After that he has "Hautekzem am linken Unter-Schenkel" - skin eczemas right lower leg

He was hospitalized in the following military hospitals:

Reserve Lazarett VI Leipzig
Teillazarett Oppeln Rich(ard)-Wagner-Schule
Reserve Lazarett VIII Leipzig
Teillazarett Klingersch(ule) ? L(eipzig) ?
Reserve Lazarett VIII Leipzig - Berufsschule West

Some of the military hospital have been located in schools.

Gerdan! You're slipping!

...edit...
After that he has "Hautekzem am linken Unter-Schenkel" - skin eczemas right lower leg

Is it left or right?

Hank

thanks for the correction,

the slinter is is the "right" arm and the eczemmas are on the "left" lower leg. Sorry Hank. Always good to have a control.
