Christian in reply to your PM,

Pioneers were the same as our Army Engineers. They built fortifications, bridges, roads etc. There were 7 Pioneer Battalions in the 100,000 man Reichswehr/Reichsheer (post WWI German Army). The 6th Pioneer Battalion was comprised of 3 Companies. The units shown are the Imperial WWI units which the Reichswehr Companies were drawn from after the war.

6. (PreuÃ??isches) Pionier-Bataillon

1st Company: WestfÃ?Â¤lisches Pionier-Bataillon Nr.7 & 2. WestfÃ?Â¤lisches (Festungs-) Pionier-Bataillon Nr.24

2nd Company: Hannoversches Pionier-Bataillon Nr.10

Bridging Column: 1. Rheinisches Pionier-Bataillon Nr.8; 2. Rheinisches Pionier-Bataillon Nr.27; & 3. Rheinisches (Festungs-) Pionier-Bataillon Nr.30
