No one and no site can give you an itemized history of your pistol. There are no such records still existing.
We can generally tell you who manufactured your pistol, and parts and a close estimate of time of manufacture. We can generally tell you who proof marked or inspected your pistol. The history of which unit, or who it was issued to, and where it travelled will likely never be known. If you are blessed enough to personally know the veteran who brought it home from the war, you would have a general idea of who he captured it from, and where it happened, but the chances of ever knowing more than that are unlikely.
Some World War 1 pistols, and police issued pistols were stamped with their initial units, but they generally stopped that practice well before WW2.
Sorry---but you are not the only one who wishes he could know more.
