Help with writing on artillery luger stock
1 Attachment(s)
I have an artillery luger stock with very light writing on the back. I managed to obtain the following information from the stock:
Bruglil of Nanlastuk Adochlrdung Kussimayan Is_many July 15, 1918 Ihame I am not sure if this is correct or what it means. Can anyone shed light on this? I have attached an inverted photo that shows the writing. I can email more photos for review. Thanks for your assistance. Al |
Al, more photos would help.
Judging from the date and style, the writing is actually English. Writing on a wooden surface with what looks like a ballpoint pen or a hard pencil is difficult and will distort the letters. I think a veteran wrote down where he obtained it, so I guess it would start with 'Battle of ....', a further location (or unit) description, followed by the date and the name of the writer. It would be tempting to think that someone described the second battle of the Marne, which started on the 15th of July, 1918. US troops were present there and did quite some damaged to the advancing Germans. |
