Nice worn dog tag from a soldier who served in the Stammkompanie Grenadier Ersatz Bataillon 186.
The dog tag or 'Erkennungsmarke' shows signs of wear. The bataillon started in August 1939 as Infanterie Ersatz Bataillon 186 in Ansbach and was renamed Grenadier Ersatz Bataillon 186 in November 1942. The bataillon trained and supplied soldiers for Infanterie Regiment 186 which was part of the 73.Infanterie-Division.
A Stammkompanie was a unit that trained the soldiers. Often the soldiers of this kompanie were soldiers who had frontline experience and/or where no longer fully usable on the front due to injuries. Of course this changed later in the war and they also where put into action (in the last months of the war) as there was a shortage of (front)soldiers.
The 'A' on both parts of the tag stands for the soldier's bloodtype.
