Luftwaffe Wehrpaß
Luftwaffe 'Wehrpaß'. When individuals received their registration notice they were to report to the appropriate recruitment center where they would be issued a 'Wehrpaß', until they were inducted into active duty. From the autumn of 1939, when an individual was inducted into active military service the Wehrpaß was exchanged at the recruitment office for the 'Soldbuch' (Pay Book), which remained in the recipients possession as his official military identification document. The recruitment office would retain the Wehrpass and chronicle the individuals active service record in it. The Wehrpaß belonged to Leutnant 'Leo Böhmer', he served in several units stationed in Germany and Czechoslovakia, from 10 January 1943 he moved to France for the 'Kampf gegen England' and served in the 'Luftnachrichten-Regiment 52'. The Wehrpaß includes a stamp from a medical doctor (Stabsarzt) from the Luftgaupostamt Brüssel indicating that he was stationed in Belgium on 29 March 1944. Take a look at the photos for more information. Interesting original Wehrpaß!
