Good one!
I like this, everything is there!
Note the scratched entry: October 10, 1918 " vermisst " and then the correction: " wegen wunden Fuessen in Lazarett Cassel."
On Oct. 10, 1918 he was nowhere to be found - so his officer entered in the man's Militaerpass: "missing"
Well, he must have shown up later, since the entry was scratched. Here is his explanation for being MIA (or perhaps AWOL?) - "My feet were sore so I checked into a hospital".
This guy is hilarious, "wunde Füße" means literally "sore feet" not any half serious abrasion to a limb.
I have never heard of any Infantry man that didn't had sore feet.
Then, 20 years later, he proudly wants to wear an Iron Cross to impress the young that are leaving to fight in a new war.
But here is a little justice:
When he applied in 1940, with forged passport entry in hand as proof, to get his Iron cross, they actually checked the records .... and said: "No!"
This is great stuff!
