Precinct numbers for Wehrnummer in soldbücher

Post by Feldjager »

I have had a lot of requests for police precinct numbers from people doing their soldbuch. Rather than keep them all to PM as some have been duplicates, can I ask that they are posted here so everyone can refer to them. I don't have a complete list, but I can do all of Austria and most of Germany. These can be fairly straightforward, or they can be a bit of an audit - if they get too complicated, you might have to revise your details a little.

A Wehrnummer number has 5 elements to it:
1. the name of the Wehrbezirkskommando - for this I need the Wehrkreis in which you were theoretically recruited
2. The last 2 digits of your theoretical date of Birth
3. The number of the military registration police precinct - for this I need the town in which you wish to have been living in whilst recruited, and the nearest major town/city within about 50km - I suggest using Google maps (http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?hl=en&tab=wl) to research this.
4. Serial number of the Wehrstammrollenblatt - pick a number between 1 and 500
5. Line number on the Wehrstammrollenblatt - pick a number between 1 and 10

Eg.: mine is Wien II/12/7/124/10 - 2nd recruiting office of Vienna, born in 1912, registering in Vienna precinct 7, Wehrstammrollenblatt sheet 124, line 10.

If you want to do your own Wehrnummer, just give me items 1 and 3. If you want the whole number, give me items 1, 2 and 3, I'll do the rest.

Dave

PS - don't ask for the lists, there are hundreds of pages in files and I'm not pulling them all apart!!

Mannheim I/13/4/280/5

Frankenthal (Pfalz) was subordinate precinct number 4 from Polizeipräsidium Mannheim (medium sized).

Thanks! Much appreciated.

So if I read this correctly, Frankenthal was a subordinate precinct number 4 from Polizeipräsidium Mannheim. And Mannheim itself was also divided, hence the Mannheim I/13/4/280/5?

Thanks, Jeff

It wasn't divided, there were simply two Wehrbezirkskommando (Berlin had 10) because of the outlying area it covered. There was also one in Worms and Wiesbaden.

Schwerin/16/3/253/9

That was a fairly easy one! Schwerin was subordinate precinct number 3 from Polizeipräsidium Lübeck (small sized).

Kolberg was a subordinate police precinct of Berlin (I think number 112) and was a Wehrbezirkskommando in it's own right.

So the correct Wehrnummer for Landser born in 1922 from Kolberg could be: Kolberg 22/112/4/7 :?:

That would be correct, yes. The last 2 numbers are purely fictional.
