      Zum Andenken
      1940 (name)

      Roughly, "A souvenir", or "A memento"
      Can't quite make out his name...and what may or may not be shorthand below it.

        I read "Daniel" for his name. The blue writing is perhaps shorthand as Hank stated.

            The word "Wegnahme" means to take away or in this case to capture. No woodchopping here other than bullets hitting trees!

                  Sauberung der genommenen gebiete

                  'Cleaning of the withdrawal areas?

                  Thanks.

                    "Säuberung" - cleaning - means to "clean" the "genommenen" - occupied areas from enemies

                    or "bandits".

                      Thanks Gerdan, 'Bandits' makes sense as this entry is related to operations in Yugoslavia.

                                It simply says "in rememberance" and his name. Below the date is probably a location but it's too small to easily read.
