Nice and interesting pictures as usual.
Could those other uniforms be of some cossacks unit? They don't look German to me, but it's very hard to say.

the ones ive translated
the men marching from artillery
Spähtrupp vor lemburg - reconisense unit[or advanced] for lemberg (ukraine)

talking to artillery unit
it says
?????? stalthelm - (i assume from arrow drawn on pic it means that the owner is the man without helmet or "no helmet")

field hospital
vor dem unterstand - before (infront) of the shelter

firing pistol in Woodyard
Pistolenschießen in Potschinok im Werk - shooting pistol in Potschinok in mill

first of the frontline pics (men in wooded lane)
Im Wald von soiry bei einem neuen Vorstoss - in the forest of soiry{farm, france} during a new advance

second of frontline pics
stellung mit fiend ( ithink, not looking at it) - attack on the enemy)

the 5000 prisoner set says
oberluintenat koop.III Battl. 9 Komp
5000 gefangene franzosen im Marokkaner
Juni 1940
- senior Lieutenant Koop, 3rd batallion, 9th company
5000 captured frenchmen and morrocans
June 1940

on 1 and the second line is repeated on the other without lieutenant koop

the ones with the wire have about a paragraph on each (havnt looked at yet)..... along with alot of other less great pics with lots of writing.

(wtf panzer ivs pic changed by itself to field hospital)
