Minen,

Just a small correction. I think the "k." = königliches.

Of course it's "Königliches". I wrote too quickly

Thanks for correction.

Leutnant der Reserve Mavors, 4 Batterie FAR 66 :

I believe it to read 4.b(adisches) FAR66

I have the regimental history- I will try to locate the Lt.d.R

I found him

Lt.d.R Mavors is from August 1914 until March 1915 with 6. Batterie, 4.bad. Feldart.-Rgt.66 - after that he is no longer with the Regiment.

Yes, you're right, I'm tired tonight

I found him

Many thanks for this information

Hi Stephan, I have some more of such ID tags.

Hi Chip, I have looked into all my "Ranglisten", from 1890, 1897, 1901, 1910, 1913 and 1914-1918, no hit for Winkelsträter.

The next one, where I don't know, for what A.M.C. is:

Uwe

[Chip]

Uwe,

I think it stands for "Artillerie-Munitions-Colonne"

Chip

[Chip]

Here is a staff officer's tag from a member of a well known military family. "Normann Treusch von Buttlar Brandenfels, Hauptmann im Generalstabe".

The next one, where I don't know, for what A.M.C. is:

Uwe

Nice !

I think it's for "3te Artillerie Munitionkolonne" (with a "C" instead of "K" ???) or "3te Companie des Artillerie Munitionkolonne".

Stephan

[speedytop]

I don't think this, because there is no Artillerie-Munitions-Kolonne in a Regiment.

And a Kolonne is definitely in that time Kolonne, and not Colonne.

My next one, Landsturm:
