Polizei Soldbuch

[jamie7d7]

My first foray into the world of Soldbuchs and this one caught my eye as it is for a Gendarmerie who served in the first war and saw action at Tannenburg and The Somme to name but a few.

However, the Soldbuch doesn't look like the other TR era books I have seen. I thought it might be a document that he had for a while ie WW1 / Weimar period and kept it throughout his service but there are only Third Reich era markings/stamps in it.

I would very much appreciate any help you could give as on the face of it, this is quite an interesting piece to me.

Thanks

It appears to be a regular Polizei Soldbuch that has had the Cover removed (de-Nazified)....
His Rank is "Meister der Schutzpolizei" - A Senior NCO...Impressive List of WWI Battle Participation as well...Cool Example despite the missing cover...Among his Awards we find the "Rettungsmedaille am Band" - The "Rescue/Lifesaving Medal with Ribbon"...

Thanks Glenn, the missing cover is the issue that had me puzzled.

A pity it is not there, perhaps I can get the price knocked down a bit now lol.

Cheers

You Most Certainly should be able to get a hefty discount due to the missing cover!!
Personally, I would offer around $45 and see what happens...Good Luck, Jamie!
