Here the content of the Card as far as I can read it: It was sent to "Frau Liesel Stumm b.(ei) Fam.(ilie) A. Engelmann Büchenbeuren Hunsrück" And it says on the left side: "Viele liebe Grüße sendet euch meine Kinder Euer Vater" (Manny lovely greetings sends you, my children, your father)
@@connorstefanski9088 I do find those photos funny as well, they are some of my favourite photos I find more or less because I think they make the people in them feel more human.
Konstantin Hierl was supreme head of the RAD. The front page is basically saying [leader of the country. and leader of the organization]. Pretty standard stuff
@@Sean-cz77 thank you for that information, I do have a lot more learning to do on the German side of the Second World War. But I appreciate you and others who give me this information on items I find to not only help me but others that watch these videos.
@@phillipnelson-j1j I got it from a man here in Germany who I usually get world war 1 items through, though sometimes he gets things like this and when he only asks €50 for it it’s hard to say no. Expecially sense military photos normally go for 50cents to $1 which I am willing to pick them up for.
I know you can be no later where you are just go to some estate sales, car boot sales or flea markets even garage sales. The best advice with that is if you see something at a price you don’t mind paying and even if it’s not something you are going to focus on for military collectibles pick it up there are always people who would trade for what treasures you can find. I believe in you and when you do find something cool do a short or video on it, let me know as well because I would love to see what you can find to.
Funfact regarding the song: it was for some times forbidden in nazi-germany, but widely popular also on the British side. There were instances, where the Germans sung it, the British guys requested to sung louder & the fight slowed down at least.
@@gtrfd3 You're welcome, bro. Interesting book. A bit funny I thought, how Adolf's picture was removed. Probably by later owners, so they could sell it on a market place, flea market, etc. and not risk confiscation.
@@Sean-cz77 thank you for that information on the subject. I love learning more things and I am happy you shared so others that watch these videos will see your information and learn more as well.
Excellent historical document. Its hard to get such kind of stuff in Germany itself as almost everything from the Hitler-era is either forbidden, censored or just not being shared to the public.
Yes most of it is very censored even in the flea markets tho you can find it. I usually ask for letters from soldiers and look for world war 1 but sometimes I get this offered instead, and even though it is very controversial history I still believe it needs preserving
I have some, they're for mustard powder like Colman's mustard as you'd only want the smallest piece on your beef, just check to make sure there not EPNS
The Reich Labor Service was not a party. It was an educational measure for young German people. Something similar happened after the Nazis and was community service. Today it is the voluntary social year. The books were a record of service to the Fatherland and not a sticker album.
Understandable thank you for the information. And the sticker part was more me trying to describe that the book was sort of being able to be edited to each persons preference
Great video! Amazing that some of the shots are still intact! I'd also like to clarify that this is a photo- film from the austrian Company called "Herlango". Also the "name" on top just says "russia", meaning it's most likely footage from the soviet front.
Back in the day babies all wore the same outfits and colors. Eisenhower has a famous photo of him as a baby in a dress, for example. Really cool photo, it's awesome to see moments like this captured from so long ago
You can tho you will have to wait a few weeks I have not finished scanning his full photo set but if you check my Google drive in 2 weeks under the unlabelled I will re name the folder us soldier Philippines
I have got 80% of the photo set scanned with that photo in the 80% i have done i uploaded it on the shair drive under the unlabeled due to me having to edit them you will have to crop and edit it your self but you are free to take copies of any of the photos you need
I agree with that, I just hope it is not mold damage and hope it is not eating away any more at the photo. As long as it last a couple years I am going to try getting it and it’s frame restored
It was used in symbology for death the defiance of death the thing which it is on being dangerous or a symbol for the dead. It also represented piracy and for substances with high toxicity.
According to a writing by Reichsführer-SS Heinrich Himmler, the Totenkopf had the following meaning: The Skull is the reminder that you shall always be willing to put your self at stake for the life of the whole community.
Well thank you for that I am use to the first war meanings when it was used for the tankers and Calvary. Honestly I am more invested in to the first war then the second but I buy stuff in bulk so all information is appreciated. If there are any other videos that need more clarification or I get wrong, please feel free to correct me.
Greetings from Germany. This Wehrmacht Soldier looks a bit like my grandfather. Where did you get this photo? I hope my family album is still complete 😅 If there is a name on the back?
There is not a name on the back sadly. I got it in a group of photos this last week at a flea market near nurenburg when I was looking for First World War RPPC’s
Here in German you definitely can if you go to the right places. I am quoting American prices due to them being a little harder to get there, and most people buying online instead of at flea markets.
Fun fact the 'Radschläger' is an old tradition in Düsseldorf which is believed to exist because the children of the city did cartwheels to celebrate the decisive victory of the Count of Berg over the Archbishop of Cologne in the Battle of Worringen in 1288. The battle was not only a military but also a political turning point for Düsseldorf. The Museum doesn't exist anymore but there is still a Radschläger Market, an art museum and souvenirs depicting a figure doing a cartwheel.
(When the sun shines, Annemarie) Words and music by Herms Niel When the sun shines, Annemarie, we'll go on a country outing! And we'll wander through the beautiful world, happy and free, as we like! And then we'll laugh, and then we'll kiss, little Annemarie, as is so usual! When the sun shines, Annemarie, we'll have a country party We're still young today, Annemarie, that's why we're going on a country outing! When we're old and grey, it's over, because then the children will leave! And then Grandma and Grandpa will only be there for the grandchildren! If the sun shines, Annemarie, we'll go on a country outing! Those who dream away the beautiful days of their youth will never catch up on what they have missed. And as long as this happiness still blooms for us, we will sing this beautiful song: Today we will laugh, today we will kiss, little Annemarie, as is so usual! When the sun shines Annemarie, we'll make a country outing. (A bit hard to translate because Landpartie has no 100% accurate translation)
His name is Otto. I suspect he was from northern Germany because in south Germany they wear different hats when hunting (the hats are different from region to region)
Large, magnificent Building Stone here in the Sunshine and the … bright bells Breaked on the Mountain wreath Proud building, deep wounds … Towers and roofs have disappeared The high arched windows are empty. We are overcome by a slight shiver When we enter the halls When the pale moonlight peeks through the broken wall Eduard Dietrich
