Steve,

The Germans used the J quite often on the tags or wrtitten docs to represent the I of Infanterie.

The problem on this one is they have used the J at the end to represent the 1 as well , looks like a bit of a schoolboy error.

Plus T Div Divisonal level replacement units would most likely end in a 3 not a 1 or if a Regimental replacement Btl it would follow the Regimental numbers which for the Totenkopf Infanterie Regiments would be 5 or 6 !! Hope that makes sense ??

regards

Paul

[Paul D]

I know mate !! might bring some stuff down if you can spare a few square inches

[John Brandon]

Of course, you're always welcome. I've got more than a few inches.........or so I'm told

[John Brandon]

There are books on the German tags, but in case you're lazy, like me. Here is an excellent site on what to look for, this site has so much information in it.........enjoy
