Hello,
I'm "digging" in the archives since years and never found what I'm looking for. My Grandfather was a member of the "Volkssturm-Bataillon 95 Stabskompanie" located in 1945 in Koenigsbrueck (approximately 30 miles NE of Dresden). He wrote a "Feldpostbrief" dated January, 27 1945 to his son (my dad). To my knowledge, this Battalion has been shipped to the east front near Finkenherd in March 1945. He never returned home and we still have no place to grieve. I contacted so many agencies and researchers, but no one have any info about this particular battalion.
To my knowledge, why was this particular battalion almost two month in the Koenigsbrueck base? Normally was the Volkssturm Training only a few hours, may days.
Thanks for all info and help.
Dear Rudowin1962
Obviously you are the original writer.
I find this a fascinating post and I have compiled this into a continuos format.
Thank you for supplying your Grandfathers details.
Most respectfully
Mark

My grandfather Alfons Wahl (born in 01, born on April 25, 1945 in the Beeskow district) was drafted into the Volkssturm Btl. 27/95 on January
22, 1945. According to my research he should have had the FPN 39824 (source stampsx.com). I recently received about 30 field post letters from
my grandfather from my father and am still in the process of deciphering them. On March 6, 45 he writes as the sender Volkssturm man Alfons
Wahl, 95th Volkssturm-Bataillon. Post collection point post office Fürstenwalde / Spree. In another letter, unfortunately undated, he writes FPN 24649 D, which probably belongs to Grenadier Regiment 1237. In a letter dated March 24, 45, the sender is Grenadier Alfons Wahl, FPN 58200/B.
It must belong to an SS Panzer Grenadier Regiment. As far as I know, there were no ranks in the Volkssturm. It may be, that he was taken over
by the Wehrmacht or SS? In any case, nothing could be learned from the Wast.
Thank you for your help, greetings from Dresden
https://www.forum-der-wehrmacht.de/inde ... olkssturm/
Wast report, but it is very short.
Wahl , Alfons, born
January 24th, 1901 in Leipzig . 1945 Volkssturm-Bataillon 27/95, subordination not specified, only determined troop report
I copied the FPN from the letters. The 58200 / B can also be interpreted as 582001 B, but would then have six digits. In addition to the field post stamp, the letter also shows a poorly legible stamp from an administration of the Waffen SS.
Field post number 58200 B was assigned as follows for the period of March 1945: Staff, Map Office and Pioneer Leader V. SS Corps
Possibly he was not transferred to the SS, but only received the mail through this office.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The VS units had practically no supply and support parts of their own, ie they were always dependent on cooperation with other units or local offices.
So he may have sent the letter of March 6th. nor from the time when the VS unit was still in permanent accommodation, from 24.3. then
when he was in the field and could be reached by post via the SS unit.
In theory, he could/should have written as an SS member, even SS Grenadier, and not just Grenadier.
On the other hand, in the letter dated March 6th. behind the 95th VS-Btl. Yes, written staff company, ie he was already used there in the "leadership"" and thus perhaps recommended himself for use in the staff of the V. SS Corps.

Re: An extensive list of Volkssturm-Bataillons?
Dear SidSid Guttridge wrote: ↑27 Jan 2022, 14:50Hi Germanicus,
Why is it so difficult to establish a definitive list of Volkssturm battalions?
Is it because they were organised on a Gau level outside the normal military hierarchy and OKW never received status reports centrally?
Is it because some or many local or national records were destroyed?
When you began your researches, roughly how many Volkssturm battalions were you aware of?
How many are you currently aware of?
Could you take a rough guess as to how many there may have been in total, at least on paper?
Will you be publishing the results in print?
Many thanks,
Sid.
You asked the above question.
Here is a perfect reason as to why.
The following is an email I just sent to Sven30 [Helge] at Forum der Wehrmacht.
Volkssturm Königsberg
Dear Helge
I am sorry to bother you yet I came across the following map with many Volkssturm Units and I am trying to decipher the un-obvious
Volkssturm-Bataillones.
Unterlagen der Ia-Abteilung der Armee-Abteilung Samland: Anlagen zum KTB Nr. 1 der Armee-Abteilung Samland – Tagesmeldungen der Armee-Abteilung u.a.
The Russian-German project for the digitization of German documents in the archives of the Russian Federation | Case 165. Documents of the Operational Department of Army Group "Zemland": supplements to the combat log No. 1 of army group "Zemland" - daily reports of the army group, etc. (germandocsinrussia.org)
https://wwii.germandocsinrussia.org/ru/ ... rid/zoom/1
https://wwii.germandocsinrussia.org/pag ... 61/zooms/8
In the above link it sights Volkssturm-Bataillon 24/74 !!!!!!!
Surely this is a typo? What would a Ost-Hannover Volkssturm Bataillon be doing there?
I have attached the actual jpeg for your viewing.
The same Bataillon is sighted here
https://wwii.germandocsinrussia.org/pag ... 63/zooms/8
To complicate the matter.
In the above map Volkssturm-Bataillon 25/74 appears to be present at the same time as
Volkssturm-Bataillon 24/74 !!!!!!! however in a separate location.
I have also have attached that for your perusal.
There are two other Volkssturm-Bataillones identified here one is
Volkssturm-Bataillon Liebel however I am unable to decipher the other.
I have attached this as well.
The Volkssturm is mentioned in this document
https://wwii.germandocsinrussia.org/ru/ ... ect/zoom/4
https://wwii.germandocsinrussia.org/ru/ ... ect/zoom/4

On this schematic
https://wwii.germandocsinrussia.org/pag ... 65/zooms/8
Volkssturm-Bataillones Rolle and Gorny are noted as components of Kdt Fischhausen.
Volkssturm-Bataillones Rolle and Gorny is mentioned here
https://wwii.germandocsinrussia.org/ru/ ... ect/zoom/4
Volkssturm-Bataillones 25/70 and 25/74 are identified here
https://wwii.germandocsinrussia.org/pag ... 68/zooms/8
and here
https://wwii.germandocsinrussia.org/pag ... 69/zooms/8
however on this map Volkssturm-Bataillones 25/70 and 25/72 are identified!!
https://wwii.germandocsinrussia.org/pag ... 70/zooms/8
https://wwii.germandocsinrussia.org/pag ... 71/zooms/8
https://wwii.germandocsinrussia.org/pag ... 72/zooms/8
No other Volkssturm-Bataillones are identified
Are Bataillones being rotated??
To compound the problem on this updated map the following Volkssturm-Bataillones are
Identified
Volkssturm-Bataillon 25/70
Volkssturm-Bataillon 25/72
Volkssturm-Bataillon 25/74
Volkssturm-Bataillon 25/78
Volkssturm-Bataillon 25/80
https://wwii.germandocsinrussia.org/pag ... 73/zooms/8
Yet on these maps
https://wwii.germandocsinrussia.org/pag ... 74/zooms/8
https://wwii.germandocsinrussia.org/pag ... 75/zooms/8
Volkssturm-Bataillon 25/76 is identified and appears to replace Volkssturm-Bataillon 25/74
I have attached the change above for your viewing.
The following units I have identified.
Volkssturm-Bataillon 24/74 [???]
Volkssturm-Bataillon 25/70
Volkssturm-Bataillon 25/72
Volkssturm-Bataillon 25/74
Volkssturm-Bataillon 25/76
Volkssturm-Bataillon 25/78
Volkssturm-Bataillon 25/80
Volkssturm-Bataillon 25/82
Volkssturm-Bataillon 25/84
Volkssturm-Bataillon 25/86
Volkssturm-Bataillon Liebel
Volkssturm-Bataillon Siebel
One unknown Volkssturm-Bataillon
Your interpretation and assistance would be appreciated Helge.
Most respectfully
Mark

Volkssturm-Bataillon Dramburg - Kreis Dramburg / Reichsgau Pommern
There is a possible connection to the Volkssturm-Bataillon 26/26 , Volkssturm-Bataillon 26/33 as well as Volkssturm-Bataillon 26/71, since
these units also came from the Dramburg district, but to date there has been no concrete connection.
The designation Volkssturm-Bataillon Dramburg is not historically secured and only serves to distinguish other Volkssturm units in the area at
the time mentioned above.
