[Brian S]

Please, someone must smarter than me read this? Translation much appreciated.

[Brian S]

No one can read this?

[Leroy]

If you show the photo, perhaps someone will recognize him.

[Brian S]

Sure, good luck.

Rather difficult.... all I can read is: ...... / August 1939. Looks like the first word also starts with "Au...".

Kind regards, Peter

If someone has a copy of this, he may be in it: http://www.amazon.com/Flak-Artillery.../dp/0764332317

Do the shoulderboards make you think Flak.

[Leroy]

Yes (unless the top is not the stylized "F" for Festungs-Artillerie, which it appears to be, with battalion numbers - not pips - immediately below). Also, the tabs and boards are not yellow underlay. Probably red, but could also be Medical or Pioneer, maybe.

I think you are right, thanks.
