Hi John, this info is taken from a CD on Feldpost numbers which you can buy from Detlev

Cheers, Ade.

Ade,

That is nearly correct but not exact...do you know what you have done wrong?

[Adrian Stevenson]

Missed the B?

[Ian Jewison]

Missed the B?

Correct

Because "B" is a sub component of the FP Nr. we can discount Stab I Infanterie-Regiment 469 as that denoted Staff of I. Battalion only.

In this case it denotes:

(28.4.1940-19.9.1940) 1 Kompanie, Infanterie-Regiment 469
(8.9.1943-22.4.1944) 3.1.1944 1 Kompanie, Grenadier-Regiment 469.


(28.4.1940-19.9.1940) is the approximate time frame when this FP Nr. was introduced.....a 5 month period.

(8.9.1943-22.4.1944) the same can be said here, however the date of introduction is actually given when it was introduced 3.1.1944

Therefore:

(28.4.1940-19.9.1940) 1 Kompanie, Infanterie-Regiment 469
3.1.1944 1 Kompanie, Grenadier-Regiment 469
