            I agree with you and I also identify the entry as "Zielfernrohr" - telescopic sight.

            Thank you very much Gerdan! Your help is very much appreciated. I'll post an update on this book in the Soldbuch forum soon.

                  I read "Junge" (your son) instead of "Jürgen" (a name).

                    The first line of the stamp on the ticket could be:

                    "Österreichische Kinderfreunde"

                    http://www.kinderfreunde.at/Ueber-un...-Kinderfreunde

                    This society was founded in 1908. In 1934 it was banned and refounded in 1945. It still exists. It is a social democratic youth organisation.

                    For the second line I need a better picture resp. scan of the ticket.

                    So the ticket must be from post WW2 period or very unlikely before 1934.


                    Regards
                    Guenter

                    Guenter,

                    I hope that these pics help as the scanner is kaput!
                    I am guessing that this ticket is post-war(?) and perhaps this young soldier "had" or "chose" to attend?
                    I wonder the significance is of "Alpina" Lager-Nr. 30?

                    Your help with this is much appreciated.

                    Thank you,
                    Vilja

                      Vilja,

                      the second line is "Judendorf - Strassengel"

                      This is a village in Austria:

                      "Alpina Lager-Nr. 30"
                      This is a designation from manufacturer of the ticket.

                      It says type of ticket "Alpina"
                      "Lager-Nr. 30" means storage box No. 30 in the warehouse of the manufacturer.

                      This type of ticket is in a resent version still available from various manufacturers:

                      Yes, because the society "Kinderfreunde" was forbidden between 1934 and 1945 resp. end of WW2. After the war it was again founded.

                      I guess the unform was demilitarized and used by a young boy. Maybe by the former soldier after returning from war or by someone else who could "secure" it, for example on the black market.

                      After the war civilan cloths were not available and usage of former uniforms was very common. This led to some troubles due to misidentification of civilians as Wehrmacht soldiers and finally wearing of former Wehrmacht uniforms was banned.

                      Regards

                        I have this notice... Came from a cemetary in a bottle. Is it a death notice of some kind? Why bury it?

                          Guenter,

                          I really want to thank you for the information supplied regarding the ticket and also for placing it in the historical context of post war Germany.
                          I was not really aware of the demand for clothing after the war....military clothing being worn by armed forces personal as well as civilians.....and the eventual banning.
                          You have done much work in your reply....all value added...and I thank you very much.

                          Sincerely,
                          Vilja

                            Yes, it gives all kinds of particulars on who, when, where, etc. I suppose somebody put it in a bottle in memoriam.

                            If you use www.leo.de, you can plug in most of the pre-printed words to find their meaning. Fairly easily.
