Can anyone help with identifying the surname (Mannel?) and his war service.. cannot find him on "Ancestry" thanks, Paul

Hello Paul.

I read his last name as Maennel ( a Umlaut ) do not know how to apply Umlaut on my keybord.

Thanks Bernard...Männel its then!!

Yes Männel and it appears he was a Beamte. His rank advancements mention "Unterbeamtenstellvertreter auf Widerruf", which was apparently soon after cancelled and he was forwarded to the rank of Vizefeldwebel. 

Bernd,

For various "umlauted" letters, you can use the ASCII code. So, for instance, you hold down the "alt" key and then type "0252" and then let up, for a "ü" and then alt+0228 for "ä", etc. You can look up the ASCII codes on the Internet, if you want more, such as the numbers that produce the capital Ä (0196) or Ö (0214) and so forth, just refer to the charts.

For some reason certain sites will show these letters and then later reduce then to gobbeldigook, so you are probably safer just using the "ae", "oe", "ue", etc.

Hello Chip.

I was aware of the way to apply some coding but was not very successful. So I do as you write ae, ue etc
