Never seen anything like this unit designation so it should be treated with suspicion
The gates of hell were opened and we accepted the invitation to enter" 26/880 Lance Sgt, Edward Dyke. 26th Bn Northumberland Fusiliers , ( 3rd Tyneside Irish )
1st July 1916
Thought shall be the harder , heart the keener,
Courage the greater as our strength faileth.
Here lies our leader ,in the dust of his greatness.
Who leaves him now , be damned forever.
We who are old now shall not leave this Battle,
But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader
House Carles at the Battle of Hastings

Well that'd be the Nordkaukasische Legion:
Nordkaukasische Legion
1. Aufstellung:
* 5.8.1942 in Wesola/Truppenübungsplatz Rembertow (Generalgouvernement).
It's listed as the Ersatz formation for 10 or 12 units like the 6 Nordkaukas. Infanterie-Bataillone. So, presumably, men would start in the Nordkaukas. Leg. for training and then move to the field units...
Ohhhhh- pillage then burn...

Woolgar thanks for the link, these guys say it is: North Caucasian Legion.
Sort of confirms what Matt says.

I am amazed that the more I learn about WW II Germany the more I find out I don't know.
