English Translation

49a I already left my military exercises in 1938 and 1939 as a volunteer and was released as a private and RoA. After a short deployment in the summer autumn offensive in eastern 1941, I was released from the Wehrmacht after one year of service on 21 March 1942 on the basis of the OKw-command (help measures for mining) in order to be fully deployed in the home front. Since April 15, 1942, I have been working on a coal coking plant, but (in Karwin O.S.) which does not in the least correspond to my previous qualified practice and above all the restless egg set to win our Enssiege. #hmelser 60523
