GreyC Posted 17 September , 2018 Share Posted 17 September , 2018 (edited) Hi all! On a POW registration card for Reinhold Lesch it is stated that he is/was held at „Prisoners of War camp, Aus. Military Protectorate South Africa" He was part of the German forces in Deutsch-Südwest-Afrika. Can anybody tell me what the Aus stands for, please? Thank you!
