military unit # info wanted
I am looking for info on a number that is stamped on a PO8 made in 08. The number is 116.R.5.2. If you know what it stands for or where it might be issued to please email me. Thankyou.

Re: military unit # info wanted
Although very very few P08s were made in 1908, the 116.R.5.2 is a familiar unit marking associated with infantry regiments. This one appears to indicate the 116th infantry regiment, 5th company, second gun. This might be an imperial unit or a Weimar unit though many Weimar markings have a slash between the unit number and unit type mark.
