Original German Imperial Army Military Document-1907-Infanterie- Regiment Nr. 61-Hasselhorst- Named: Pechow
Original Imperial German military document dated October 19, 1907, relating to a soldier identified as Gefreiter Paul Pechow (surname appears to read Pechow) of Infanterie-Regiment Nr. 61.
The document is an original pre-WWI German Army form headed “Im Namen des Königs!” (“In the Name of the King!”) and bears period handwritten entries, signatures, and an official military ink stamp. The printed notation at the bottom identifies Infanterie-Regiment Nr. 61, making this a particularly nice identifiable Imperial German regimental document rather than a generic piece of paperwork.
The document appears to concern the soldier’s military service/status and contains substantial handwritten German text across both sides. The reverse includes the clearly written date 19 October 1907, along with an official circular unit stamp and additional signatures/notations. The place name Haselhorst is also prominently written.
A good researchable piece of Kaiser-era German military history, dating only seven years before the outbreak of World War I. The named soldier and specific regiment offer additional potential for genealogical and military-service research.
Condition is fair to good for its age. The document has been folded multiple times and shows scattered foxing, toning, staining, edge wear, and general handling consistent with a 119-year-old paper document. Handwriting remains largely visible, and the official markings display well. Please see photographs for exact condition.
