This is a fine militärpaß for a man named Franz Hasinger, who entered the Bavarian Army. He was born in 1867. In 1885 he entered the army and was assigned to Infanterie-Regiment Nr 16. The booklet has numerous unit stamps and entries through 1895. It is always quite interesting to find a 19th Century militärpaß.

This is a liederbuch (songbook) for Jäger-Bataillon Nr 3. Jäger-Bataillons had the best marksmen in the entire German Army. [During the Napoleonic Wars, it was their role to advance as skirmishers, engaging the enemy’s skirmishers and endeavoring to pick off enemy Infanterie and Kavallerie Regiment officers]. This particular songbook is from Brandenburgisches Jäger-Bataillon Nr 3, which was founded in 1815. It was garrisoned in Lübben and assigned to the III. Armeekorps. It also participated in 1815’s Battle of Waterloo.
The small booklet measures ¼” x 4″ x 5 ½.” It has a full-color cover that displays a red enlisted man’s Bataillon shoulder strap. It is filled with many patriotic songs, including one specially created for Jägers.

This is a rather odd soldbuch. This man entered the army in 1916. He was assigned to an Ersatz artillery unit. It actually seems that he may have been assigned to a Flak unit, although I cannot see that he was assigned to an air unit. This would make for an interesting little research project.

You will have to be a person who enjoys military documents such as Militärpäße and Soldbücher to appreciate this, OR somebody who would like a really old document. What we have is an abrechnungs-buch, which is a pay book. This is for a man by the name of Hermann Feshe, who served in an artillery brigade in the Prussian Army. You ask how early this book is? How about 1829-1831!?! I have spent a half hour pouring through this book. I really find it interesting seeing how later German military documents incorporated this information into those documents. The ink entries are clear. It is amazing to hold in one’s hand a document that is more than 170 years old, and which was created barely a decade after the great Napoleonic wars.
