Pat, that is one of the rarer unit markings, as Mike says it is a Fortress telephone company. Festungs-Fernsprech-Kompanie Nr 7, Waffe Nr. 8 was part of Telephone Battalion 7 and garrisoned in Mainz. It belonged to XVIII army corps. I would like to know the complete serial number of the Erfurt for my records. I have 1912 Erfurt sn 8586 that is unit marked F.F.K.3.12.
