GreyC Posted 30 August , 2023 Share Posted 30 August , 2023 (edited) Zur Herstellung einer Gasleitung in der Rue Esplanade für das Helferinnenheim-Betriebsamt Ath So they were either female civil workers or female helpers for the hospital. Probably civil workers to help with administative tasks. GreyC Edited 30 August , 2023 by GreyC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreyC Posted 30 August , 2023 Share Posted 30 August , 2023 (edited) interesting, thanks. But as I wrote before, I´d probably go with female clerks helping out at the Betriebsamt. Otherwise I would have expected to have read Schwestern-Helferinnen (assistant-nurses). GreyC Edited 30 August , 2023 by GreyC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreyC Indeed, in this wording it means female helpers, often in the administration but also in Soldatenheime and other non-military tasks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
