(Deutsches Reichsgebrauchsmuster) 1 367 174" on the inside back cover and maker marked "Wetten & Co., Nationaler Werbedruck, Berlin SW 61" on the back cover, containing fifty-two pages printed in brown ink, plus cover printed in black ink, tape reinforced flap with four die-holes attached to the binding on the left side, 126 mm x 147 mm, tear at the lower right affecting the front cover and the inside pages, very light soiling on the exterior of the cover, better than very fine.
Footnote: This Wehrpass was issued to Herbert Treeter on June 20, 1938 in Chemnitz. Treeter was born on January 4, 1918 in Chemnitz and was an Evangelican Lutheran. He served with the Reichsarbeitsdienst (National Labor Service) from November 2, 1938 to March 25, 1939. On March 3, 1939, he was accepted as a volunteer for the 3rd Battalion of Gebirgs-Jäger-Regiment 98 (Mountain Troop Regiment 98) in Mittenwald and was expected to be called up by this unit on October 15, 1939, however, he was never posted to this unit. From November 20, 1939 to January 28, 1940, Treeter had basic training with the 2nd Schützen-Ersatz-Kompanie (Riflemen Replacement Company) of Infanterie-Ersatz-Bataillon 112 (Infantry Replacement Battalion 112). From January 29, 1940 to March 14, 1944, he was assigned to Infanterie-Regiment 31 (later renamed as Grenadier-Regiment 31) of the 24. Infanterie-Division (24th Infantry Division). Treeter qualified on the following weapons: Gewehr 98 K, l.M.G. 34, Luger, hand grenade, 08/15 light machine gun, and M.P. 40. From February 20 to March 22, 1941, he took part in an NCO training course with Infantry Regiment 31. In combat, he was to be employed as a Gruppenführer (Group Leader) and Melder (Messenger). During the Battle of France in 1940, Treeter was struck by a bullet on the left side of his chest on May 17th. He was initially treated at Field Hospital 24 (Motorized) and then hospitalized in Chemnitz through June 11, 1940. After recuperating, he served as part of an occupation troop in Belgium in 1940 and 1941. From the beginning of Operation Barbarossa,Treeter fought in many important battles with the 24th Infantry Division (Lemberg, Uman, Tscherkassy, Poltawa, Krim, Sewastopol, etc). On December 18, 1941, he was wounded during the siege of Sevastopol by artillery shell fragments, which struck his right shin and left thigh. Treeter was hospitalized again, this time in several hospitals. After recovering, he returned to the Russian Front and was seriously wounded again. He suffered a serious fracture of the lower left leg and a fracture of the right knee south of the (Ladogasee) Ladoga Lake. This wound was so severe that his left leg had to be amputated. He was again hospitalized in several hospitals, was assigned to Heeres-Entlassungsstelle 2/IV (Army Discharge Center 2/IV) on March 15, 1944, and finally discharged from the service on April 12, 1944. Pasted in the back of the Wehrpass is Treeter’s Ausmusterungsschein (Military Exemption Certificate) for being unfit for service (this certificate is dated May 15, 1944 and the photo has been removed). The Wehrpass also includes Treeter’s Entlassungsschein (Discharge Certificate) issued by Heeres-Entlassungsstelle 2/IV. During Treeter’s lengthy military service, he received the following awards: the Wound Badge in Black on September 27, 1940; the West Wall Mall on December 12, 1940; the East Medal on July 29, 1942; the Wound Badge in Silver on September 16, 1942; the Iron Cross 2nd Class on October 31, 1942; the Wound Badge in Gold on October 31, 1942; the Romanian Crusade Against Communism Medal with Krim Clasp on November 17, 1942; and the Krim Shield on December 30, 1942. This is a great Wehrpass for a decorated combat veteran who lost a leg in the war.
