The one with the blond beauty on it is a fieldpost card from Willhelmshaven with a really cool anchor chain on it,never have seen this before.If any one would like to translate please do so.
It says:
"Viele Grüße aus
Wilhelmshaven
sendet Dir Dein Freund
Sepp! [= a short/affectionate form of Josef or Joseph]
Abs. [= Absender] Matr. [= Matrose] Stadler 4/2 MEA [= Marine-Ersatz-Abteilung] Wilhelmshaven
Lager Heuweg Baracke 5 Stube 1"
...meaning...:
"Many greetings from Wilhelmshaven
sent to you by your friend
Sepp!
Sender: Seaman Stadler 4/2 Naval Replacement Unit
Wilhelmshaven
Camp Heuweg, Barrack 5, Room 1"
The card was sent to Ms. Gretl Karl from Schirmitz, a community in the Upper Palatinate.
Oh, and is it just me or does that girl in the second photograph have a distinct aura of Village-of-the-Damned-type creepiness?

Re: New BDM and HJ postcards
As I was trying my hand at reading the post card before going on the compare with your correct version I kept scrolling down and looking into that girls eyes.
I'd have hidden all knives and razors if she had lived in my house.
I digress, the post cards are great.

Who leaves him now , be damned forever.

But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader

BDM particularly as they are fairly scarce and desirable items
