About this item
A German Aluminium Identity Tag measuring 70 mm across and stamped to a replacement company below which is the soldier’s number within that company, and his blood group, A.
Once suspended on a cord or chain through the two upper holes the tag or disc would, in the event of the soldier being killed, be broken in two with the upper section remaining with the body, the lower half either collected to be recorded or nailed to a marker on the grave.
All soldiers joined replacement companies on entering the army, their tags being replaced once transferred to their final unit. The presence of a blood group on the Tag suggests this was issued between 1941- 45
