I was out at a local shop and found this book. I’m not familiar with these at all so any would be greatly appreciated.

schwere Stellungs-Werfer-Regiment 101 was located in the Cherbourg area in 1944 so if there are no entries dated after June 1944 it could be that he was taken PoW when the unit was destroyed in June 1944. He isn't listed as being killed in the Volksbund database.
I am trying to understand his name and I see Wilhelm Underbrink or is the last name something different. I need new glasses. Lol
I did see the last name Unterbrink?????
And what type regiment are they. Artillery or Rocket?
It is Unterbrink, born on 29th December 1906. His mother died in 1910 and his father in 1930.
If I am correct I think this is what he was trained on.
Yep, that's it.
It looks like the regiment was in two maybe three different locations on the peninsula before the invasion.
The man in the Wehrpass served within II Abteilung.
Nice Wehrpass to a member of the 4th Batterie, I've got an M42 helmet from the same unit, (7th Batterie) so I'm really jealous of your find!

I would love to see a picture!!!!!!! I really didn’t expect to find anything from the Battle of Cherbourg. I normally collect Japanese and U.S. dog tags and have a few German. I’m going to try and pin down where this unit was exactly but probably won’t have any luck.
