Regimental Markings When And Where?
Jeff Noll in his 'The German Imperial Markings' list hundreds! I have wondered for years why and when they were applied on some and not others that year. When did it begin? Of the three 1913 only one is marked to machine gun unit! One theory is that those submitted for repair where marked for return to the original unit!~ It appears that no two marked units are alike! Some are on items beside lugers like holsters a various matching stocks. What and When were they applied? it enable history questions like me trace a luger to a particular unit or use! According to Nolll, my 1913 DWM s/n 2310a; Regimental: '7.t.3.3`Telegraphen-Bataillon 7, Kompagne 3 Waffe NR.3 A wealth of information and a story derived from the hands of history!
