I just got this piece of paper! It's ripped in two parts unfortunately but still a nice new item for the collection.

Ammersfoort, 6 Oct. 44
Release Certificate
van der HARST, Pieter
born 7 Apr. 19 in The Hague
has been released from the Police Transit Camp today.
The Camp Commandant:
[signed: Berg]
SS-Untersturmführer"
Reverse:
"Remarks.
v.d.H. has been medically examined here in this camp and is unfit for commitment to work in Germany.
He is being released on condition that he immediately report to the German consultant of the Labor Office in charge of him.
The Camp Commandant
[signed: Berg]
SS-Untersturmführer."

Thanks. Here is a link to SS-Untersturmfuhrer ''Berg'' (camp commander)this must be the guy who signed the paper. The link is in Dutch but there are ways to translate: Kamp Amersfoort Historie 41-43 Het Kamp SS uitbreiding
Here's one I used to own - the paper was obviously just as weak ..

I hope it's clear that these were for the release of an INMATE - nothing to do with Dutch SS volunteers , like the thread title might suggest ..
