25.04.1942 letter from Fp. 43170E : 12.company of verstärktes Kroatisches Infanterie-Regiment 369.(Croatian legion) ,to Zagreb. Interesting text : legionare describes earlier winter attack on 4 Russian bunkers and capture of 40 Russians. He writes " ..it was nasty with bombs and bullets falling around us..."
24.02.1942 letter from Fp. 43170E : 12.company of verstärktes Kroatisches Infanterie-Regiment 369(Croatian legion) . Same author as letter above. Writing error : he puts his Feldpost number as 17043E instead od 43170E. Card was mailed to Zagreb with interesting text about horrible Russian winter ,with temperatures dropping to -39°C . The author writes he had only one frostbitten finger while many Russians froze(to death).
18.01.1942 card from Fp.42050C- 6.Kompanie verstärktes Kroatisches Infanterie-Regiment 369 to Zagreb(Agram) Croatia
Card has no Feldpost cancel nor any censor marks and possibly was carried in person by someone to Croatia , other possibility is that it passed Feldpost system without these cancels which was extremely rare in early years of war.
Content in quite boring..simple love troubles... who is writing letters to whom and why...
