It is estimated that over 17 million Soldbuch identity documents were issued during World War Two and surviving examples often provide valuable insight into the everyday lives of those who served within the German military, including what uniforms and equipment they were issued. In this episode Chris goes on a deep dive into the world of these documents and explains how information gleaned from originals can be extraordinarily helpful when putting together a reenactment impression.
