Description
An account of the resource
(Translation of the back side of the sheet)
Principles of the Law of War Captives
(According to the Hague Convention 1907, Geneva Convention 1929)
From the moment of surrender, German soldiers are regarded as prisoners of war and fall under the protection of the Geneva Convention. Accordingly, their rights as soldiers will be fully respected.
Prisoners of war are to be brought to collection points as soon as possible, far enough away from the danger zone to ensure their personal safety.
They will receive the same food, in quality and quantity, as members of the Allied armed forces, and if sick or wounded, they will be treated in the same hospitals as Allied troops.
Badges and valuables are to remain with the prisoners of war. Money may only be taken by officers at the collection points, and for this, a receipt will be issued.
In the prisoner-of-war camps, sleeping quarters, allocation of accommodation, bedding, and other facilities are to be equivalent to those of the Allied garrison troops.
According to the Geneva Convention, prisoners of war may neither be subjected to reprisals nor exposed to public curiosity. After the end of the war, they will be sent home as soon as possible.
Soldiers are defined, under the Hague Convention (IV, 1907), as all armed persons wearing a uniform or a clearly recognizable insignia.
Rules for Capture:
To avoid misunderstandings during capture, the following is required:
Lay down weapons, remove helmet and belt; raise hands and wave a handkerchief or this leaflet.

Subject
The topic of the resource
This is an early war Wehrpaß for a soldier with the rank of Obergefreiter (Private First Class) in the German 3rd Army 11th Infantry Division. He was a conscript who was born to a ethnically German family in Nieder-Ullersdorf (Dolní Oldřiš). This was part of the Sudetenland that was annexed by Germany under the 1938 Munich agreement. He was involved in the invasion of Poland, the invasion of the Netherlands, the battle of Dunkirk, and the battle for France. He was killed at 28 years old during the invasion of Russia under operation Barbarossa. The report from the Volksbund indicates that he died somewhere near “Nowel” which most likely refers to the village now called Nevel (Белор. Невель, Russian/Belarusian: Невель) in Pinsk District, Brest Region, Belarus — a small settlement southwest of Pinsk near the Belarus–Ukraine border (approx. 51.93°N, 25.85°E). His remains are believed to be buried in the war cemetery in Sebezh, Russia.
