Heer SB to a Admin Officer in the Ammo trade

[Jock Auld]

Guys,

Got this today, sadly the picture missing but a torn picture from another ausweis was inside the back cover, I am assuming this is the same bloke?

So, to the book, he seems to have a nice set of awards for all of that 'brass handling'.

Apart from that nothing fancy.

Nice one Jock,

Wilhelm Greschkowski is listed as an Hauptmann (WE) (1.3.36(9) at Heeres-Feldzeugverwaltung I in Königsberg in 1937.

Glenn,

I can't read his third promotion but logicaly it must be Lt Col?

I know your eyes are good with this sort of writing, can you have a stab at his speacalist clothing on p8? His p6 and 7 is totaly blank with regards normal issue kit not even a steel helmet?

I know you are more Imperial but I thought it interesting that the bar to his EK2 is listed but not his WW1 EK2, I guess he had more medals but they are not included here, probably in his WP?

I like p8d, he appears to be a 'Pistol Pete' with two privatley owned firearms, I just have this cowboy image, still you know how dangerous short barrelled weapons and officers can be.

Hope you are keeping well and settled into the civvie grind!

Jock

Oberstleutnant (W): 1.12.43. Not an administrative officer but effectively as we would understand in the British Army, an Ammunition Technical Officer.

Best I can make out from page eight is that it pretty much all refers to his his ownership of privately held firearms.

Miss the "pop star wages" as a civvie!

Glenn,

The 5th picture, headed: Besonderer Bekleidungsvermerke. It is quite busy with an extra page inserted, most times this is not used at all. Perhaps some kit related to ammo handling, anti static etc?

You were on those wages with all them years, it was less of a wrench for myself, when I lost all the money, the kids left home so I broke even, LOL!

Was down Sennelager last week and nothing has changed much.

Best Regards

Jock

Very nice example. I have a couple of SB to these Admin type guys and they are always chock full of entries, sometimes far more than those carried by combat troops. The signature of the Generalmajor on page 15 is Kurt Marlow who commanded Artillerie-Regiment 614 at the beginning of the war.
