This is a duplicate militärpaß from Niederrheinisches Füsilier-Regiment Nr 39. The man’s name was Johann Heinrich Hüsges. He was born in 1883 and joined his regiment in 1903. He mustered out of the regiment in 1906. On the page with that information we see a regimental unit stamp. We see that he was recalled to the army in 1914. He served through much of early-to-mid WW I.

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.

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.
