The last one is very hard to read. It could be M24932.Do you have a location for M45127. I believe that it's possibly Tech.Ausb.Gru.f.Front-U-Boote????Thanks again.Richard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichardT Posted August 20, 2007 Author Share Posted August 20, 2007 Thanks again Gordon. Yes, the 9 instead of the 0 makes sense.What was a mobilisation unit and vehicle pool as it relates to u-boats?Dick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon Williamson Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 No, mobilisation just refers to the time, not a unit, so these numbers were allocated from, --the time the armed forces were mobilised, until -----. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichardT Posted August 20, 2007 Author Share Posted August 20, 2007 Makes sense.I found a couple more numbers I need help with M42766 in October 1943 and M108907 or M10890. I'm not even sure if the last one was a feldpost number. It's hand-written for a clothing requisition.Thanks again Gordon.Dick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

U-Flottille Command.I don't thinkl the other is a Feldpost number, certainly doesn't correspond to any I've seen listed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichardT Posted January 9, 2008 Author Share Posted January 9, 2008 A new request regarding FP nr. M 03184.My feldpost number book indicates that this number was for 24 U-Boots-Flottille/Kdo. Was this still the case in December 1943?Thanks for the help.Richard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon Williamson Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 Only two allocations shown for that number, which would suggest it should no longer have been in use after Jan 194103184(2.1.1940-27.4.1940) B.d.U.,(15.9.1940-31.1.1941) 24.
