[Milsurplus] Odd paper item

Hue:

 

     FWIW:  The Battle of the Bulge (a/k/a Battle of the Ardennes Forest)
began in the pre-dawn hours of 14 December 1945. Also, I found this link
https://wartimememoriesproject.com/ww2/pow/powcamp.php?pid=3111 to Oflag
9A/Z.   Maybe there's a connection there?

While I am cleaning up paper, triaging, I found this little piece of a
cardboard box cut from apparently a French shoe box. 

On it, in pencil, kind of hard to read:

 

"Was cot prisona in Dec 14 - 1944 sent to a Janny hospittle at givestin and
it was on crx even they bon it I was in it

300 popple die in the raid I was then sent a hospilte in Starlooch I stayed
thear 2 month and then was sent to 9A

Prizin camp wear we stayed" 

 

Also has this:

 

" 01237067

  O8J9K10

  (2)  "

 

The top number is too short to be an Army RA number.

Hard to know what to do with such a stray item. I should probably find some
kind of museum to donate  it to; they

could show it with the above text nearby, maybe?
