The tag or 'Erkennungsmarke' shows overall signs of wear. It belonged to a soldier that served in 7.Kompanie II.Abteilung Flieger Regiment 71. This regiment was formed in April 1939 in Sorau as Flieger Ausbildungs Regiment. In August 1942 the regiment became Flieger Regiment 72 and the II.Abteilung was stationed in Carcassonne, Southern France. The II.Abteilung was also known as Kampfgruppe Simon, named after it's commander Oberstleutnant Fritz Simon. According to research this group consisted of only 400 soldiers.
It fought fiercely against the Americans in late August and early September 1944 in the Monelimar and Lyon area.
Interesting dogtag.
