Some Mauser and DWM documentation
 

Hi,

Not a lot of documentation of Mauser and DWM has survived. A recent visit to the Landesarchiv Berlin showed me the small amount of documents that were returned to Berlin from Russia after the war. Only a handfull.

So it's nice that once in a while original DWM and Mauser related documents surface somewhere. I've been lucky the last few months.

The first find is a DWM letter, dating from 1943, asking the receiver to fill in a declaration for the reservation of an airplane flight from occupied Paris to Berlin.

The next find is a letter of condoleance, written and signed by Dr. Doerge, site manager of Mauser in Berlin, 1940. It appears that someone linked to the Mauser management died and that the management not only decided to write a personal letter, but also to send a wreath to be placed at the deceased person's grave.
