1. Kompanie Schwere Artillerie Ersatz Abteilung 30
Artillerie-Ersatz-Abteilung 30 - Lexikon der Wehrmacht

I agree with Ben on the unit ID. Nice salty original.
Thanks gents. Since it has Ersatz on it this was a replacement assigned to the unit. Is that correct?
Was looking at the above reference and would the erkennungsmarken read 1st battery artillery replacement battalion 30 replacement regiment?
Sorry, I should tweek the unit name that Ben posted as of course it should read:
1st Batterie Schwere Artillerie Ersatz Abteilung 30.
Artillerie Ersatz Abteilung 30 consisted of three Batteries, two light and one heavy (as per your ekm) and provided Flak support for the Infantry Divisions it was assigned to.
Why are so many of these marked Ersatz? Are they replacements sent to that unit or units made up of replacements? Thanks
