    In the www I found this :

    "dans les troupes de montagne on relève aussi les sections (Abteilungen) de Gebirgs- Funker"

    Possible - but then I would expect a "Geb", not a "geb" - still curios what it could mean.
    Maybee the owner of the pass could check if he ever was with the mountian troopers?

      #6591 - Is very clear handwriting and is from someone's sister - "Der Besten in herzlichen Grussen sendet dir deine Mutter - Schwester"

      #6593 is from his Mother (Mutti) so I would guess the address on the card is your man, but the handwriting is too difficult for an Iowa boy like me.

      Is it Auguste Zwirn? Feldpostnummer 29761-B

            From Esslingen - Reutlingen - Ratzenhof(?) (Freifahrt - no charge, I believe)
            Grund (reason): 14 Tage Erholungsurlaub (14 days recovery vacation)

            I'm guessing you understand the dates.

              Hi Gerdan, Checkit,

              Thanks for identifying my guy. So when the one card was written, August was in a Panzerjaeger Kompanie. So I assume the cards were just general chit chat type stuff. Let me put up the next batch of his cards and see what can be deterrmined from them.
