Welcome
The Diary of my Great Grandfather
My great grandfather, named Eugen Biedenbach, served from 1941 to 1945 WW2 in the german military as a infantryman. Before the war he worked as merchant and loved to do kayaking. He often documented his adventures with his camera and continued it in the war. In his diary he wrote about how life was in the war and what the daily life of a soldier was. After the war he collected old papers and photos to preserve his an others history.
I will upload the entire diary one by one because there isn`t only his diary but also many papers , photos and personal letters he collected.
