These two original Third Reich forms originated at the DAF office of Gaudienststelle Berlin, the KdF (Strength through Joy) department of Reisen, Wandern und Urlaub (Travel, Hiking and Holidays). These forms had to be filled out by DAF members who wanted to take advantage of the travel opportunities offered by the Kraft durch Freude organization of the Deutsche Arbeitsfront.
The 5-1/2 x 8-1/4 inch form with the black header was for personal information: name, address, Ortsgruppe and Kreis, monthly or weekly salary, married/single/divorced, children, illnesses, etc. There is even a question about whether or not the applicant was Kriegsbeschädigt and the official percentage of the "War Damage"!
There are additional questions about the number of vacation days the applicant had available, if he/she had every participated in a KdF vacation before and if a KdF Reisesparkarte (to which the stamps offered above had to be attached) already had been purchased and in which value.
Teilnahmebedingungenor Terms of Participation which the traveler had to sign in agreement. They cover rules and regulations regarding illness, cancelation of the trip in case of insufficient travelers, change of destination, accident and luggage insurance (NOT included), having to follow the directions of the Reiseleiter or tour guide at all times, the obligation to wear the DAF-Abzeichen or badge while en route, etc. Number 5 is underlined: the applicant could only participate if he or she could not afford the pay for the trip without the financial help of the NSV!
