Can somebody clearly reproduce this inscription (in German, certainly). As I do not know German, I can make on a diopama gross blunders that will be indecent.

More colloquially, erledigt can be translated as "knocked out, dealt with, taken care of", that sort of thing.

Stimmt das, Zepp?

In this case I would suggest that "erledigt" means "destroyed" or "killed".
