Help with 'feldpost' number

[Al P]

I have a minesweeper badge with some numbers scratched into the back. I am unsure if they are for a feldpost number or not, but would appreciate someone with the tools to check the number or if anyone has any ideas as to what they may stand for. My camera bites for close up work and the scanner does not pick it up clearly.

Scratched into the back " 0.2411" it might be a Q but looks more like a zero and the . might be a spot on the badge.
below this reads " ./ 41 KS "

here is the link to the badge thread

Any help would be appreciated

If you say it is 02411" "./41 ks then it is more than likely his dog tag number....41 being the year he entered the Kriegsmarine.

Thanks, I know nothing about FP numbers or serial numbers so I was taking a guess it might be a FP number. I take it there is no way to trace the number given the amounts of men in the wehrmacht and the years that have passed; but it is my first item that I may have had a chance of tying to a specific individual. The thought of that is quite exciting and now I can see why the document people enjoy their area of collecting so much.
