94907 Translation - Russian

8/18/2021 1:32 PM I would love to have a full translation of this postcard to my uncle Leo.

This note to Leo Fink was written, I think, by his uncle Yasha Finkelstein from Cordoba, a suburb of Buenos Aires, Argentina. While Leo and his siblings Sol and Esther came to the US, Yasha went to Argentina. He stayed in touch with the Fink/Finkelstein family, who lived in New York after emmigrating from Russia/Poland/Ukraine.

This may be a mix of Yiddish, Spanish and Ukranian--not sure.

thank you

see also the postcard from Yasha to his brother Sol Finkelstein in NY, uploaded separately.

8/18/2021 1:32 PM I'd love to have a full translation of this postcard from my gu Jasha Finkelstein to my gf Sol Finkelstein

This may be a mix of Yiddish, Spanish and Ukranian--not sure.

This card was sent by Jasha to his older brother Sol in 1928. Jasha emmigrated from Russia/Ukraine/Poland to Argentina in the 1920s while Sol went to the US. I don't know when Jasha married, but his wife's name was Louisa. The brothers stayed in touch their entire lives. Any info you can provide would be most welcome.
thank you

94909 Translation - Russian

8/18/2021 1:32 PM My gf Sol Finkelstein served in the Russian Army in WWI. He was injured, captured, sent to a hospital (possibly in Danzig) and then to a POW camp (likely in Germany or Austria). I think he was working as a translator and so likely was an officer.

I found this card online in a Russian State Military Historical Archive. There are several Sol Finkelsteins listed, but I don't know whether any of them is my gf. I'm hoping to find the card for my gf by learning how the person on this card was injured and where he was imprisoned.

Any help you can provide would be much appreciated.
thank you
