      The battalions of this regiment were army troops. I have a wehrpass to a member of 4./ AR 109 but this was part of II./ AR 109, there being three batteries to a battalion.

          In Russia I./ AR 109 was attached to IX Korps initially and later with other Korps of 4. Armee.

            I'm playing catch up here ...yes II./ AR 109 became II./ AR GD in February 1942.

              The mashinetyped "umgegl." means "umgegliedert" or rearranged into a GD-unit, as Gary has shown before.
