Nice worn dog tag from a soldier who served in the Stammkompanie Grenadier Ersatz Bataillon 106.
The dog tag or 'Erkennungsmarke' shows signs of wear. The bataillon was formed in late August 1939 in Aschaffenburg as Infanterie Ersatz Bataillon 106. It trained and supplied soldiers for Infanterie Regiment 106 which was part of the 15.Infanterie-Division. In November 1942 the bataillon was renamed into Grenadier Ersatz Bataillon 106.
Besides Infanterie Regiment 106 the bataillon also supplied soldiers for different Ortskomandanturen and Feldkomandanturen.
A Stammkompanie was a unit that trained the soldiers. Often the soldier of this kompanie were soldiers who had frontline experience, but no longer were fully usable at the front due to injuries. Of course this changed later in the war as there was a shortage of (front)soldiers and where mobilized also.
The 'B' on both parts of the tag stands for the soldier's bloodype.
