Need One Page of Wehrpass Translated, Any Help??

[8thssfloriangeyer]

Hello, I would greatly appreciate any help with translating this page? The handwriting has made it very difficult for me to decipher. I know getting it all translated might be impossible, but anything at all would make me forever grateful!

The bottom part of the page usually relates to someone who has been discharged from service and shows that he has undertaken a course on security, treason, espionage (along the lines of what to look out for, not how to undertake such activities) etc.

Here are 2 stamped versions of that entry.

Wow, Thank You so much!! This is truly an amazing forum. So no mention of what might have caused the discharge? I always thought He had been injured and that's what had been written about.

There might be clues on other pages such as unit lineage (page 12), wounds listed (page 34) and/or pages 24 & 25 which were usually filled out if someone was discharged (but not always).

Well the wounds listed page is blank. The unit lineage page is attached here, what I also find strange is after his discharge in September 1940, it has him returning to duty in February 1942? And his discharge pages seem to be from 1920? Any idea what he is listed as doing in 1920?

Most German Males were "called up" with the war mobilization of 1939/40.... including older reservests and many civilian technicians & skilled workers.... but after the Fall of France they were demobilized and returned to their civilian jobs. Nearly all were recalled as the war situation deteriorated and as slave labor replaced many civilian positions in factories, Mines, etc.- freeing them for active duty and their eventual fate...
