[QUOTE=siegersallee;242192]Hi All,

I just saw a 1911 Erfurt that is unit marked as follows: "106.R.5.6." . The italics are mine, I did this to ensure the period after the 6 is clearly apart of the unit mark.

I am guessing something like:

None of the above.....

It is 7. Saxon Infantry Regiment "King George" No. 106, 5. company, weapon No. 6

German Infantry regiments have had 3 battalions with 4 companies (250 men per company) with each battalion and mostly 1 MG Company.

Regards from Germany
