In July 1942 it was renamed Panzer Grenadier Ersatz Bataillon 73 and it still supplied soldier for the, by then renamed, Panzergrenadier Regiment 73. In April 1943 the bataillon became Panzer Grenadier Ersatz und Ausbildungs Bataillon 73.

The dog tag is broken, but complete and solid. The 'O' on both parts of the tag stands for the soldier's bloodtype.
