Stalag IXC POW tag
This one is in fantastic shape and the lettering (to my untrained eye) looks the same as another one posted here back in 2009 as well as images from "the Pegasus archives" that detailed the camp.
POW Tag
The unique "S", as well as the other letters (t, a, l and g) seem to match up. Also the space between the IX and C.
But would be overjoyed if someone confirmed that it is real.
Any way to ID the soldier to this tag?
Any thoughts?

My greatest fear is that one day I will die and my wife will sell my guns for what I told her I paid for them

It's original, of course...But you must know the country of the soldier, French, Belgian....In france, we can find the names but not the numbers.
Ther is one place with good informations
But if your tag is not for a French, it's not helpful to write.
Here, all the prisoners by name, no number!
