February 27, 20224 yr #1 Hello everyone. I hope this is the right area for this. I have a German field post Letter w/envelope and was wondering if anyone could translate it? Google is spotty with it all and making it hard to put it all together. Also attached is just a envelope w/o a letter. This first envelope goes with the letter. Anyones help would be greatly appreciated.
February 27, 20224 yr #2 Hello, the translation maybe difficult for some as it is written in Sutterlin script, a type of cursive penmanship that has not been used for some time, sort of like today's youth can't read cursive let alone to attempt it, there are some that are proficient and if worse comes to worse I can pass it on to my good friend Mattias who lives in Germany and is capable, now the first Feldpost number if I read it correctly is 47639 47639 (30.7.1941-28.2.1942) Nachrichten-Helferinnen-Einsatztrupp 73 47639 (23.4.1944-24.11.1944) 22.5.1944 gestrichen The second Feldpost number 16765 16765(Mobilization-1.1.1940)7. Luftgau-Stabs-Nachrichten-Kompanie Luftgau-Nachrichten-Regiment 11 16765(28.4.1940-14.9.1940)2. Kompanie Luftgau-Nachrichten-Regiment 11 16765(6.4.1944-9.11.1944)14.10.1944 gestrichen
February 27, 20224 yr Author #3 Thanks for the info. That would be great if your buddy could possibly translate it. Also what’s the numbers for? Location I take it?
February 28, 20224 yr #4 28.4.1940-14.9.1940, these numbers represent the dates as done by the Germans even today, Day/Month/Year so 28th day/ April / 1940, those datse indicate usage range, or dates used

So obvious to. I just read it to fast 😁 Let me know what your buddy comes up with in the translation. Thanks.
February 28, 20224 yr #6 1st letter, this is what I can decipher so far: "Liebe Liesbeth! (Lisbeth short for Elisabeth) - Dear Liesbeth Zu Deinem Geburtstag wünsche ich Dir von Herzen alles Gute. - Happy Birthday and all my best wishes Vor allen Dingen jedoch Gesundheit, denn das ist ja doch... - First and foremost health because this is.... Möge Dir das neue Lebensjahr viel Freude bringen. - May the new year of life bring a lot of joy. ... froh mit Deinen Eltern, denn es ist doch schön, wenn man bei seinen Lieben daheim sein kann - ... with your parents, it´s great to be at home with the family. Liebe Lisbeth nochmals alles Gute wünscht und grüsst Dich recht herzlich - dear Lisbeth once again my best wishes and greetings Dein... - Yours.. Recht herzliche Grüsse auch an Deine Eltern - Many greetings as well to your parents" I wasn´t able to decipher the senders´ first name yet. Last name seems to be "Fröhling" Adressee looks like Fräulein Lisbeth Krullmann ... Sachsen
