    gas mask can number meaning.

    Ok,I have one more question pertaining to the number painted on the gas mask can's. In a nut shell,what the heck does the number signify???? Are the Sodaten numbered,like a personal number for each individual man? Also,how high would have the numbers reached? If this question involves to lengthy of an answer,just try to break it down as best you can. Could someone please help explain the reason and some history behind numbering the gas mask canisters? Thank you, Andreas.

    Andreas,

    Take a look at www.dererstezug.com This is a great site for german WWII reenactors. They have an articles section which is further subdivided in to other sections that deal with honing your impression. Check it out and see if it helps.

    The # on the can was the soldiers #. He got this with the issue of his I.D. tag.
