Luftwaffe Luftwaffe Dog Tag

[Bob Lyons]

Hi All,

You guys may know the system used to de-cypher the later war Luftwaffe Dog Tags perhaps, I have this one in my collection, and I am not sure

what the unit may be that this tag is associated with. It is marked 68421 over 510, and I guess the 510 is the airman's personal number but I have

no idea of the unit, and I have been told that the number doesn't correspond with the known FJ numbering system, so it is possibly associated with

a flight unit. (also interesting that there is no blood group stamped into it).

Any ideas at all???

Many thanks

Cheers

Bob
