Handmade kriegsmarine?

I believe this tag belonged to BtsMt Friedrich-Fritz Fritzenkötter, Born 10.09.1922 in Dateln and dead 15.04.15 by Dakovo /Croatia. Does the reported dead place corresponds with the area you have found the tag?

Where in the world did you find it?? If his gravesite is listed as "unknown" on the Kriegsgraeberbund Website, you have the chance to narrow it down.
