Re: 100 year old lady awarded the Ehrenkreuz der Deutschen Mutter
I just saw this thread from a couple of years ago and was surprised no-one had commented on it. Can anyone translate the caption please?
Looking for LDO marked EK2s and items relating to U-406.....

Re: 100 year old lady awarded the Ehrenkreuz der Deutschen Mutter
I can give it a try.
Description: Scherl
A one hundred year Berlinerin (female)
On 10. Feb 1943 celebrated Mrs Hedwig Rohde, Berlin Charlottenburg, her 100 birthday. Mrs Rohde who have gived life to 8 children and holder of the golden mothercross had 22 grandsons, 9 grand children und 2 Great-grandchildren. The Jubilarin(person celebrating an anniversary) is in spite of her high age still a often user of the theater and cinema, her main interest is the newsreel.
Something like this. It should be pretty close translation. I have some problems with the Enkel urenkel and ur-enkel. Ur-enkel is great grandchildren, Enkel is grandsons.

Re: 100 year old lady awarded the Ehrenkreuz der Deutschen Mutter
This lady from Berlin celebrated her 100th birthday on February 10, 1943. She gave birth to 8 children for which she is (was) awarded the Goldenen Mutterkreuzes. She has 22 grandchildren, 9 great grandchildren and (I think) 2 great great grandchildren.
She is proud that at her age she regularly visits the Kino-Theater and her main interest is the (weekly show) Wochenschau.
So she already had her award in 1943 when she turned 100.
Looks like a sweetheart to me ... OMA

Sorry mate (Rudy). But now it should have been translated for sure. Trotz, means in spite of. Not to play smart ass.

Correct, I was reading (in my head) schtolz ... proud.
Never try to play a smart ass when you can actually be one ... a real man won't get offended.
