Uncategorised Entlassungsschein (Discharge Papers) Fußartillerie-Regiment Nr.8

[IrishGunner]

Assistance in translating this Entlassungsschein for Fahrer Johannes Weis, Fußartillerie-Regiment Nr.8, would be appreciated. I get the idea, but there's a lot more written here than "Go home."

Hello Rick.

It gives particulars such as

- reason for discharge ( here denobisation),

- discharged to lovale and date,

:- clothing issued,

- travel money,

- discharge money,

I am unsure of contents of the reverse which shows a 1919 date.

Was with munitions transport unit, not a safe occupation ( if there was one atall)

I did a transcription and translation in a WORD document but I cannot cut and paste the information into this response. Discouraging. Any idea why this is the case?

Marcin and Andy, both, thanks! It's interesting to see how simple demobilization seems on paper!
