Hi Matt, try here for info:

It would be 2 Kompanie Infantry Regt 101/2nd Battl.

German "I" 's look like "J"'s to English eyes. There was no Jager Regt 101 that I am aware of?

Cheers, Ade.

Hi Matt, that is the Company

No.13 Company was the support Coy.


Cheers, Ade.

Hi Matt

I thinks it's more likely 13 Kompanie of Infanterie Regiment 101. The II would indicate battalion but it's not usually written in that order and the 13 Komp. wasn't part of the II Btl.

I think you're fine with it matt. The II might refer to something else as there seems to be a larger gap between it and the rest.

No.13 Company was the support Coy.

Incidentally the 13 Kompanie was normally the Infanterie-Geschütz Kompanie.
