Hello again - I have another postcard I would appreciate if it could be translated for me. Thanks! M.f.g. Eddie

Hello Eddie:

Here is a go. It is really hard to decipher some of the old script on this post card, but here is what I come up with, leaving underlines for words I can't figure out.

Werter Pg. Richter! Sind 1/2 ___ hier in Hamburg eingetroffen und dann auf dem Schiff eingeteilt worden.Habe soeben ein Küche Besichtigung __genommen und bin überrascht über die fabelhafte Einrichtung. So etwas ist mir einmalig. (From here, it is sketchier) ____ _____ _____ ich auch begegnet 24 ___ wird gestempelt(?). _____ vielen Dank für die ____ ____

Viele Grüße an F__ Wand___

Translation of the first half:

Esteemed Pg. Richter!

We arrived in Hamburg and were then billeted aboard the ship. Made a visit to the galley and was surprised at the fabulous equipment. I've never seen anything like it.


Withour being able to decipher all the words in the latter half, it's hard to figure out the meaning. Hopefully, some other members are also interested like me in the old deutsche Schrift and can help with this.

Thanks for the effort so far. If a better scan is needed, I can try to provide one.

This is what I was able to read.
I think, "Pg." could mean "Parteigenosse"?
And I assume that he crossed out a letter, making the word read "gestochen" (the sentence starting with "24...")
Hope this helps,
Hiltraut

Esteemed Pg. Richter!
arrived halb past six here in
Hamburg and were then
assigned within the ship. Just
took a short walkthrough and am
surprised about the
fabulous interior. Something like that
is just unique. I also met Miss Brüttig.
At 24 hours it will be off to the sea.
Thank you again very much
for arranging the journey.
Many regards to Miss Wandke.

Excellent! Well done, Hiltraut.

Thank you for your help - very well done!
