Some photos to go with Waynes

Post by Crazy Feldgendarme »

Managed to find the old thread I posted some of the pictures on so im going to add then here
A number of years ago in Lincolnshire i walked into an old shop and bought a photo album relating to Wofgang Pusch started in 1936 it contains photos of a lot of his early career in the National Work Program.
One of the main photos is this group picture dated 1939 and rather a strange map that is supposed to be of a march they did around the time of the invasion of Poland. There is writing on the reverse of some of the photos but im loath to remove them in case of damaging them.

Any ideas on this people. :)

Latest instalment these would appear to show Wolfgang,s barracks on transition from RAD to Army. Dont know if the one was a postcard post war though but it appears to have his bed space marked.

The group of off duty soldiers looks just like KP1 before they get ratted, look at the man on the far right i knew i was old but not that old. Guy in the centre has a right shiner. !!!!

Feel free to download the pictures and play around with them if you think it may help in identifying any locations/countries or units types.

By the way folks these pictures have never been published before either on the net or anywhere else so you lot are the first (after me) since Wolfgangs family last saw them.
