This identified personal photo album documents the military career of Oberstleutnant Ari Bombach from World War II through his post-war service in the Bundesluftwaffe. Bound in a textured brown cover titled "Kriegs-Erinnerungen," the 9 by 12-inch album contains 91 black-and-white photographs with handwritten captions. Wartime images depict Luftwaffe officers, command offices, inspections, and locations including Memel and Markersdorf. Later pages capture post-war command changes and feature portraits of Bombach, including a caption dated January 25, 1956. The binding remains intact with minor edge wear and light fraying to the cord. Some photographs in this album may be vintage photographic copies rather than original copies. PM
