Soldbuch - Help with translation

[russg]

Hi,

I recently bought this army soldbuch with the intention of doing some research into it. The problem I am having however is not with the ‘printed German’ translation but with trying to translate the ‘hand written’ parts.

I am hoping that those forum members who speak German may be able to help me with this soldiers’ name. To me the forename appears to be ‘Hermann’ but I can’t decipher the surname. Can anyone help me with this.

Furthermore, the seller implied that this soldier may have been killed?? If his full name is deciphered could someone help with verifying this.

Thanks in advance for any help,

Russ

The name is Hermann Manghofer (son of Clemens Manghofer from Reischach in Upper Bavaria). He may or may not have benn KIA, but nothing in these two scanned pages implies it and he is not listed in the Volksbund's online database.
