Re: Need help identifing writing on trunk
it might be an idea to post some pictures of the trunk itself as well as that might give more information

Re: Need help identifing writing on trunk
Good idea. Have tried to attach images to first posting. Hope this helps :-)

Re: Need help identifing writing on trunk
Dipling possibly is "Diplom-Ingenieur " - German engineering university degree abbreviated to Dipl Ing.

that would go along with op todt

Re: Need help identifing writing on trunk
Diplom-Ingenieur, yes that seems right.
Also wondering if it could be 2HH OBL Ratz and if OBL then could stand for Oberleutnant. Would OBL be a correct short for Oberleutnant at WWII? And would if so a Chef of OBL II be a Oberleutnant?
Regarding 2HH and 7HH. Could this be somthing like 2. regiment, 7. regiment??? I am shure HH is short for something in the german army.

I would think OBL is more likely to be for the OT rank Oberbauleiter.

Re: Need help identifing writing on trunk
could always be osama bin laden
on a more serious note i would go with oberbauleiter as its imo a bit more likely

Re: Need help identifing writing on trunk
Any German people here that could help shed some light on the last line:
"Abs GL Rab Dion Brt. Helle Reilin NW 40"
Abs I take as Absender or something like that. But is the rest an address? And if so, to where in the world?
-
Re: Need help identifing writing on trunk
Aha, correction. After studying the text more I now think it reads:
"Abs GL RAB Dion Brl Heller Berlin NW40"
or
"Abs G.I. RAB Dion Brl. Heller Berlin NW40"
Could RAB be a title in the army?
Dion be a last name?
Is NW40 someplace in Berlin, Germany?
Update: found in google: SS Militar District was the number III "Spree", located in Berlin NW 40, Wilsnackerstrasse 3, Phone: 35 61 36.
Could it be a connection?
And found that it is a postal district in Berlin named Halle. So the address could be:
"Abs G.I. RAB Dion Brl. Halle Berlin NW40"
This could maybe make sense????
