Need help deciphering abbreviations

Post by TH » 09 Feb 2022 19:12

Hello,

I cannot decipher the three following abbreviations (see texts below images).
Both snippets are about the treatment of a wounded member of an independent Abteilung (batallion).

1.png
Woroneshkaja leicht verwundet ??? abgegeben H.V.Pl. [Hauptverbandplatz]
??? Liste Nr. I lfd. Nr. 3

2.png
Res.Laz. Schleswig (Lkb 788) ??? Schulterdurchschuß re.

It might be helpful if you could produce a clear print version of the above rather than the handwritten one.

Hi,

The pic after (Lkb788) reads:

Gr.Spl. = Granatsplitter

Best regards

In the other one, A.G. could be Artilleriegranate or Artilleriegeschoss.

Do the remaining letters look like r.ct. ?

Maybe A.G. r. A., Artilleriegeschoß rechter Arm?
The As look slightly different, but that would be plausible in terms of content.

Could the second one be N.V. Liste, meaning Namentliche Verlustliste?

Makes sense.

Thank you both!
