thats correct, the Loewen in this case stands for the city Leuven and not for the Lion
Once Pauke deciphered it, I punched it into Wikipedia and Leuven came right up...so all is good

The second one:
Grab in der Anlage "W" - grave in the installation "W"
+ b.(ei) Brübg(?) im Pasch?
shows the wooden grave marker from Obersturmfuehrer Hans Bastians, he allegedly shot himself while he was playing around with his gun. He was Himmler's first Chauffeur).....Hm, need to find out what the "b(ei) Bruebg im Pasch" could be...
Thank you very much again Gerdan.

Nachname:Bastians
Vorname:Hans
Geburtsdatum:31.05.1926
Todes-/Vermisstendatum:01.01.1945
Todes-/Vermisstenort:Ostpreussen

I start some days later than the beginning:
27.6. letzte Zigarette - last cigarett
28.6. Kornfeld - cornfield, Sauerampfer - sorrel
letzte Kartoffel - last potato
29.6 Gras - grass, Sauerampfer - sorrell
30.6. Sauerampfer - sorrel
1.7. gekochte Kartoffel - cooked potato, ?. Krüger
I think he wrote down what he fouund to eat during his way back.

Thanks Gerdan, confirms my initial thoughts. I recognized the word kartoffel in several places and "Hunger".
25.6 - Last word looks like "panzer" to me.
He was with the 14. Infanterie - Division, was awarded DKiG and NKiG later in the war. Another 2 pages, did he pick up a pistol, MPi and ammo 7.7?Attached Files

thank you very much but this Hans Bastians is a different one, the one I'm looking for died in June 1940.
I have two more I can't read, or at least I cant read a portion of it.
Thank you very much in advance
