Soldbuch to Jäger Theo Henker. First issue from March 1945, just after Henker's 18th birthday. This young Fallschirmjäger was immediately deployed on the Western front. The Soldbuch was opened by his Kompaniechef, Oblt. Georg Twenhövel, who had also just been transferred to the 1. Fallschirm-Armee. Fighting in the German-Dutch border area (Reichswald, Rheine, river Ems), Henker was shot through his thigh and captured by the Americans early April 1945. He was treated in the 166th General Hospital and released late May 1945.  

The Soldbuch is missing the units pages 3/4 and award pages 21/22, as was sometimes done by soldiers just before their capture. A portrait photo was never inserted. Interesting entries include a "Tarnnetz" camouflage net and full Fallschirmjäger uniform.
