    "Honor Prize for Shooting with a Rifle"

    Hi Rick,

    unbelievable..................... but you are completely right !!! :jumping: My grandfather had the same entry in his Wehrpass - Ehrenpreis f?r Schie?en mit Gewehr / honor prize for shooting with rifle ..... AND he had the additional entry Ehrenpreis f?r Schie?en mit Pistole / honor prize for shooting with pistol

    He started in the Reichswehr in 1927 and was a "long service NCO" .... he had some special entries in his Wehrpass because of his position in the "Abwehr West" .....
