He was born in 1899, Catholic and from the small town of Illmünster, so he was quite old for active duty when the war broke out in 1939. Hence probably not many entries after that date. Although a doctor described him as fit for duty it seems he was discarded from military service in early 1940. He received training on the use of the K98 rifle. He served as "Funker" which translates as radio operator.
Thanks for sharing!
Best, Jan

The group photo appears to have a truck and trailer in the background which may be radio trailer. There is one reel of cable on the ground to the left and one to the right. They do not look like Fernsprech reels so I am not sure of their purpose. A clearer photo would help. NH
