Details

The dog tag or 'Erkennungsmarke' shows signs of wear. The kompanie was part of Infanterie Ersatz Bataillon 30 which later (Oct. 1944) became Grenadier Ersazt und Ausbildungs Bataillon (motorisiert) 30.The bataillon trained an supplied soldiers for the Infanterie Regiment 30.

A Stammkompanie was a unit that trained the soldiers. Often the soldiers of this kompanie were soldiers who had frontline experience and/or where no longer fully usable on the front due to injuries. Of course this changed later in the war and they also where put into action (in the last months of the war) as there was a shortage of (front)soldiers.
Interesting and harder to find EKM.
