Shane, is it in German or English?
Hiltraut

I have a book to give away. It is in German, used, of course, but still ok. I just hate to throw it away.
I would send it to anybody who would like it, but USA only.

As Feldgrau does not let me post the pdf here, I had sent it to you as PM.

I cannot tell you for what purpose it was used, but I found a pretty good comparable one. It does not read "Ost", but "Hartpost", but I am pretty sure it is the same one you posted.
Here is a picture of it. I found it in a pdf file, but I cannot upload it.

Oh, sorry! :)
I think it says "Batteriechefs".

the word reads "gestern", which means "yesterday".

Yes.
