I have a very nice M95 spike with the marking as above. It is also marked Offizerstelle Karl Otto 1904 2/69. I know this soldier was of a high nco rank. Would like to know of the units history after say 1900. And if its possible to find out anything on this nco? Why JR 31 and LJR31. Did the regiment one day just go into the landsturm or what?

During the war LJR 31 was part of the 1 L.D. which fought on the eastern front from mobilization in Aug '14 until Feb. '18, when the entire division was transported to the western front and served to demobilization in Nov. '18. They fought in Tannenburg ('14), numerous battles in Poland ('15 thru '17), and Flanders ('18)
