The first page is marked in the corner with \u003cstrong\u003eCo F 1301 ENGINEER\u003c\/strong\u003e, and then is named to \u003cstrong\u003eArthur Rampanelli, 619 E Cook St, Portage\u003c\/strong\u003e. This is a very clear attribution to the \u003cstrong\u003e1301st General Service Engineer Regiment\u003c\/strong\u003e. This unit landed at Utah beach on August 6, 1944, and for the next seven months the 1301st supported the Third Army's drive across France and Germany. This included building temporary bridges, repairing roads, and other support functions.

This book was the official NSDAP party guide published by \u003cem\u003eReichsorganisationsleiter der NSDAP\u003c\/em\u003e, Dr. Robert Ley, describing in great detail the structure of the NSDAP and all its sub-organizations like no other book that was published in Germany between 1933 and May 1945. The book was never for public sale and only for party officials and offices. There are about 80 full color plates with uniforms, awards, banners, etc. plus countless other black and white illustrations in the text.
