Quickly read your list, all correct at first glance. A fluent english user may perhaps check if you use the proper english terms to translate, but iot seems OK to me...

Thank you!

Do any English speakers perhaps have any comments?

[Simon H]

All your interpretations are accurate.

Thank you very much

One more question about 1. SCHTZ. ERS. KP. 327.

I thought that this stands for 1st platoon of 327th replacement rifle company. But as I saw this could be 1st company of 327th replacement rifle battalion as the company would not have such a high number?

I would take this to be 1st Zug of Schutzen Ersatz Kompanie 327 also.

This in turn would have been part of the Infanterie Ersatz Bataillon 327.
