Field post number help.

[Patrick Dempsey]

Hello all,
sorry for another thread on the dreaded Fp Nr but i need some help if that's at all possible?
I need to find out for a fellow collector which unit was attributed to this number: 03465.
It should tie in with a KM coastal artillery unit.....

Any help appreciated,
all the best,
Patrick.
