Pages 60 to 64 - and the finish of this document!

I was fascinated by what I read. I assume that other Allied countries provided their troops with some type of similar information? Does anyone have a copy, as it would be interesting to compare.

Thanks Michelle the reading is fascinating! It's obviously propaganda, but so interesting and that's the way it was then. I love the "there are signs that Germans are preparing a third world war that must be prevented at any cost" part. I also like the way they are preparing solidiers to deal with indoctrinated Germans.

National Identity Card both adult and under 16. I didn't include the inside of the child's as it give's too much information that would still be applicable to someone living.

I'll see what else I can get scanned in the next while.

Here's an interesting document from my Grandfather's papers. It's an Application for Appointment as Warrant Officer, and was never filled out. Thought you guys might enjoy seeing it.
