Jaeger6 Posted 22 March , 2020 Share Posted 22 March , 2020 The rank is Uffz. = Unteroffizier (Corporal), the lowest rank of NCO in the German army. His first name looks like Jürgen, The familyname is a bit difficult, the first letter could be a G or an H, followed by "erz". The letters in the crease end with a g but before this it gets tricky. Common names that could fit are Herzog or Herzi(n)g, but it could also be Gerzig or something similar. Markus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morance Posted 1 September , 2022 Author Share Posted 1 September , 2022 Thanks a lot ! But do you know what is "Betriebzug Aforna" ????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreyC Posted 1 September , 2022 Share Posted 1 September , 2022 Operation-unit Aforna, Aforna either being a place or an abbreviation for a unit. GreyC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AOK4 Posted 1 September , 2022 Share Posted 1 September , 2022 No, it's Betriebszug Aferna 6 (Armee-Fernsprech-Abteilung), that is the name of the unit. A Aferna was subdivided in Züge (platoons), the "Betriebszug" was one of those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
