This is a soldbuch from Infanterie-Regiment Herzog Friedrich von Braunschweig (Ostfriesches) Nr 78. The soldier’s name was “Rabenberg.” Several of its pages are loose. We can see the regiment’s unit stamp and basic information about its owner. I see NO indication of service during WW I.

This is a very engaging watch fob from the German colony of Südwest-Afrika. At one end is a silver-toned veteran’s medal.
It shows Kaiser Wilhelm II in his Garde du Corps Hohenzollern Eagle-topped helmet. On the reverse it states “zur Erinnerung an die Aufstände in Deutsch-Südwest-Afrika.” Inside the individual links are circular portraits of Hauptmann Franke, Major Vestorft, Oberst Leutwein and General von Trotha. The last link (General von Trotha) has no further attachment on it.
This is a very unusual colonial item from the lesser-known of Germany’s two African colonies.

GERMANY – MILITÄRPAß – August Eisenberg – AVIATION
An attractively conditioned militärpaß to a soldier who was assigned to Kampfgeschwader 7 O.H.L. Staffel 38. August Eisenberg was born in 1896, and he entered the army in May 1916. He was first posted to Flieger-Ersatz Abteilung Nr 3 in Gotha in July 1916 (this unit stamp and signature of the commander is present). The unit stamp for Staffel 38 and the signature of the Staffelführer, a Hauptmann, is also present. Two other later units are indicated by stamp and they are Flieger Abteilung Nr 10 in Böblingen-Stuttgart in 1917 and Königl. Preuss Rüst-Abteilung fur Flieger-Waffen. The last entry that I can detect is August 1918.
A very well marked militärpaß to a soldier who spent his entire career in aviation units.

This is a combination of a militärpaß and soldbuch from 6. Thüringisches Infanterie-Regiment Nr 95. (The regiment consisted of men from Saxe-Coburg-Gotha and Saxe-Meinigen). The man was born in 1897 and entered the Army in 1916. He initially served in the regiment’s II. Ersatz-Bataillon, a Bataillon of replacements for men who had been killed or wounded in battle. Later he transferred into Grenadier-Regiment Nr 11’s Minenwerfer-Kompagnie. He survived the war and mustered out of the army in 1919. His soldbuch is included. His soldbuch lists numerous entries for hospital stays. They are an interesting pair of documents that allow opportunities for additional research.
