This is an interesting Polizei Soldbuch, it belonged to Georg Friebe, born at March 26 1900, died at the end of the war on April 1 1945, serving with the 1 Rgt Landwacht Niederlande, 3. Kompanie. Died and buried in a Kriegslazarett at Apeldoorn and reburied, of course, in Ysselsteyn, Brabant, the Netherlands.
Needless to say, in am very interested in a death notice of Georg Friebe, should it exist!
Hope you like the photos!
It is always great to see Polizei documents because I will be the first to admit that I am not too familiar with them.
No casualty, card unfortunately, but I did find this -

I can't work out his cause of death from page 14, maybe thrombophlebitis linken bein und Gangrän bein, Amputiert linkes Oberschenkel, ??? gangrän rechtes Fuße ??? ??? (Thrombophlebitis left leg, gangrenous leg, amputation of left thigh. ??? gangrene right foot ??? ??? ).
Very cool little group and great to have pictures too. I don't know much about the police ones, but they are interesting to see. Thanks for showing it. -Rose
And as always Will, thanks for your time looking for the additional data, I will keep it close to the documents.
I am far from a Soldbuch expert, let alone Polizei matters. Last year I bought a first model Dutch Legion tricolor arm shield and the seller contacted me later, offering this grouping. It was 'the Dutch Connection' why I bought it. Everything Landwacht related is very hard to find over here. Anywhere I guess. Quite a gamble, the shield is an expensive variant, the Soldbuch grouping was, ahem, also expensive, and it was the first time I had contact with this seller. But his credits were good and in my best Google French we came along. The seller turned out to be a very a reliable and contentious person and within a week all arrived, carefully packed and in excellent condition. No hidden defect and all accurately described.
Thanks for your interpretation of page 14. To be honest: I couldn't make anything of it! I thought the second to last word looked like Kopfschuss, but your view makes more sense. Gangrene looks very alike indeed!
It sounds like you found a good seller and that is always nice. Also I agree it is ok to pay a premium for an area you collect, especially if is it niche.
Now worries, I am just a little frustrated because I can't work out what it says and give you a definitive answer. I actually dreamt about this script last night!
Thank you for posting a really nice and interesting document.
