registriert) lediglich Folgendes zu entnehmen:

I will be writing to Germany for military history to see where this group were stationed. I know he was only at the front for a short period before being captured by the soviet forces and then spent 5 yrs or so as a POW

I assume the dates below have some relevance to his internment ?

His rank was Kanonier (Luftwaffen Helfer).
Missing near Karlsbiese, Neulewin.

Holzkombinat Bobruisk 7168?
Bobruisk 7168 Arbeitslager bis 22.12.46

Greg again thank you - his family had no idea re his war service so putting this together has been good -0 now we have some sort of a story - obviously much more research to do eg locate these camps etc
