Hello,
I have found the abbreviations below in an evaluation report concerning a German officer:
"F.s.g.a."
"F.g.a."
Can anybody around here explain them?
best regards
Jens
P.S.:
I can't find them in the US handbook "GERMAN MILITARY ABBREVIATIONS" from 1943.
Abbreviations meaning?

F could be for Führer, FS for Führer Schule , G.A for Gefechtsausbildung ( combat training, battle drill ).in an evaluation report concerning a German officer
Then, it could be mean, something related to Chief of Combat Training.

Hello,
Thank you for your suggestion, but I don't think it fits.
To give some idea of the context, you can find the complete text below:
"Äuβerst pflichtbew.,ehrgeizig,unermüdl.tätig.Besonders bem. um Fortbildung.s.Offiziere.F.s.g.a.Geeignet zum Kdr.einer Feld-Div."
"... Bei s.groβe Gründlichkeit fällt es ihm,bes.in schw.Lagen,nicht leicht,sich von Einzelheiten freizumachen u.den Blick auf d.Ganze zu richten.F.g.a.Befh.Höh.Kdo."
Best regards
Jens

Re: Abbreviations meaning?
Here some other possibilities:
- Fällt (sehr) gut auf
(Be noticed (very) good)
-Fähig, (sehr) gut as
(Competent, (very) good as)
-Führer, (sehr) geeignet as
(Leader, (very) qualified as)
But the last two don't fix well with the first evaluation, because the following sentence starts again with "Geeignet" (qualified)...
