# 4910
A certain Horst writes to his girl friend Rosi from his ship in front of a photo from her. In about 2 - 3 months he will have vacation/holidays an will go to see her and spent the time together with her. He wants to stay with her and her parents for some days in Wien/Vienna. After that he wants to go with her to see his mother in Danzig. His mother also wants to know Rosi.
This is a (very) short summary of the letter.

It comes from a Hafenkommandant in mudros Greece.
Very strange to start almost halfway the paper, but only the leftside looks to be torn.
in forward, thank you very much for your time.
thanks

I thought maybe the original poster might have more documents that would identify his ship(s).

Thanks in advance.
Panzer rohrchen in S..... Juni 36
Armored tubes [barrles] in ..... June 1936.
But I can't make out any umlaut in röhrchen. As I recall, "~chen" is dimunitive; If correct, this might be "tiny panzer tubes in S....."
Also, the placename might begin with "N" instead of "S" ... definitely there are two "u" present as indicated by the "almost-circles" above them. Add to that either a "yp" or "pp" or "yz" ???? This is a tough chestnut to crack (for me)!
Arrgh! It's printed right on the bottom: Neuruppin.
