Nope, look again at what was asked, the number has AD at the end, that always indicates a 'Sammel-Feldpostnummer' or collective Fp number used by towns and cities for small independent units and offices.

You're using the CD aren't you? I've heard that it's not always as easy or accurate. I'm using Kannapin's books rather than the CD, doesn't it include the collective FP numbers?

[Daniele C]

I am yes...im afraid it doesnt include those FP you mean.
Kannapin s books are more accurate than the Tessin?expansive the same i guess?

[Jonathan M]

The CD does include the collective Sammel-feldpostnummer's in one of its subdirectories. If you make a search using the function on the CD it will take you to:

AD (18.5.1944-19.12.1944) 27.7.1944 5. Freileitungs-Bau-Kompanie,
(20.12.1944-8.5.1945) 30.1.1945 gestrichen.
