The first one says:
"Als Abschluß des heutigen, so herrlichen Tages in tiefer Liebe und tiefer Dankbarkeit!
Ewig Dein [signed]
Linz, 23. August 1944"
[As an ending to this so very wonderful day in deep love and deep gratitude!
Forever yours [signed]
Linz, 23rd August 1944"]
The second one is a quote from Hitler's Mein Kampf:
"Wer leben will, der kämpfe also, und wer nicht streiten will in dieser Welt des ewigen Ringens, verdient das Leben nicht.
Kriegsweihnacht 1939
Dein [signed]"
[So, he who wants to live shall fight, and he who does not want to battle in this world of eternal struggle is not deserving of life.
Wartime Christmas 1939
Your [signed]."]
I'm not quite sure about the signature, it looks like "Engi", which sounds a bit odd. Could be an diminutive from/abbreviation for a Christian name like Engelmar or Engelbert.
Thank you very much for the answers!

You, Germans, have done a lot for us! You have returned many lost lands after World War I
