Hi
Came across this little booklet and would like if possible to find out more about it.
Any ideas as to what it is and if possible a brief translation of the hand written text.
many thanks

the condolence card is sent from a family in Leipzig Möckern to a family called Schwitzing.

I had a look and found only one soldier KIA (from totally 3) in the Volksbund list who was

born in Leipzig.

May be this is the soldier / son of the family KIA:

Nachname:Schwitzing
Vorname:Erich
Dienstgrad:Unteroffizier
Geburtsdatum:17.02.1913
Geburtsort:Leipzig
Todes-/Vermisstendatum:06.07.1942
Todes-/Vermisstenort:H.V.Pl. 1.Zug Sankp. 1/88 Oslinka u.Dij-
Maja

His grave is not known.
