Hi G.!
It is a attestation for learning the profession of a fitter/metalworker in poland 1934 to 1937
I think not real interesting.

so,,it is a postwar document stating that he learned the metals trade in 1934 to 1937..

It is part of a group..

2 postwar photos of him.... One directly after the war wearing what I think is a 'DP' armband [displaced persons] with 'Police'[?] at bottom....

This piece is why I bought it... I used to have a couple of these IDs but lost them in the flood.

Believe it or not these are hard to find for ID collectors and/or foreign volunteer/HIWIs..

trying to figure out how these are tied together, and why this postwar document was made..

On the ID it is for a Ukrainian and states he is Ukrainian.

Also 3rd down is 'Rank'? Schlosser?

Wish I could see that armband clearer.......

Schlosser is the Profession.....fitter/metalworker

and yes, this Attestation was writen after war in Germany to Attest learning this Profession years ago in poland.

Oh...that Armband....
Looks to me without any doubt post war.
Police here directly after war was appointed by the winners.
There were no uniforms and so this policemen of the first hours got first times only
a Armband and a baton
I would bet this was one of this guys
