Hi Fran,
I am reading: "Da die Maschine endlich eingeflogen ist, läßt man sich die wohlverdiente Zigarette sehr gut schmecken. Willy, 42" Translation: Since the machine finally has been test flown, we can enjoy the well-deserved cigarette very well. Best wishes, Robert |

Re: Backside photo translation
This one was firmly glued to a piece of album page. Because these kind of black paper are not very consistent and the glue usually are water based, I carefully removed it with some water avoiding to wet the photo emulsion side.
Finally the 'price' appeared pencil written as the name of the person depicted; a LC der Spiess. I just can read his rank is Feldwebel, but what is his name? Thank you Fran |
