German WW2 Army Aluminum Dog Tag – 1. Schützen-Ersatz-Komp 74
1. Schütz. Ers. Kp. 74 (1st Company, Rifle Replacement Battalion 74 / 1. Schützen-Ersatz-Kompanie 74).
Excellent condition.
This unit served to train replacement soldiers and provide personnel for Infanterie-Regiment 74, which was later reorganized into Schützen-Regiment 74 (and subsequently Panzergrenadier-Regiment 74 of the 19. Panzer-Division).
While Infanterie-Regiment 74 was originally supplied by Infanterie-Ersatz-Bataillon 74 in Hameln, later replacement provisioning for the resulting Schützen-Regiment shifted to Schützen-Ersatz-Bataillon 73 (later Panzergrenadier-Ersatz-Bataillon 73 in Salzwedel).
