Lets see some of your favorite police ID's documents, papers, etc.
This is one of mine, of course Gendarmerie related, and with a bit a postwar aspect...

Here is an interesting Polizei Soldbuch. I did not know if I should put it here or in the WSP thread. This fellow is a reserve in the Wasserschutzpolizei. Notice he is wearing his standard police tunic in his photograph.

..and a close-up of the cancel . There are no other entries in his Polizei-Dienstpass after his promotion to Lt . on 29.10.43. May be he was 'rewarded' with an assignment to fight the Russian Partisans or some other secret duty ???

Very nice example and we see such a little amount of material from the WSP! Thanks for sharing!

Bernd, nice grouping you have there! I always enjoy seeing these sort of groupings and knowing they will stay together! To me they say so much more about the individual and his career. Thanks for sharing!

Bernd,
It is very nice to have these document groupings. I have one complete personnel file that has file copies of all the policeman's documents and one set from a retirement including his retirement documents signed by his colleagues.
Here is an early 1932 Ausweis from the Bavarian Polizei for an Oberwachtmeister. Interesting that this fellow's name was Weimar and this was issued during the last days of the Weimar Republic.

The 2nd page . The swastika on the cancel was darkened out with a pencil , since he stayed in service at least until Dec.6.1945 under the British occupation . On the 4th page is a note that he had joined the POLIZEI on 26.4.21---so he was a 'old timer'!

Page 8 shows that he was still in service on Dec.6.1945 ; which would have been under the 'new management' of the British!
