Original World War 2 German Erkennungsmarke (“Identity Disc”) of “II./A.R.55” which stands for II. Abteilung/ Artillerie-Regiment 55, individual number 20 and bloodgroup B. Condition as seen. I have researched the tag and the tag belonged to Wachmeister Josef Witkowski. He served with the Artillerie-Regiment 55 and afterwards with the 11. Batterie/ Artillerie-Regiment 81. Severely wounded on August 18, 1942 in Schirwanskaja by Artillerie shrapnel. Then with schwere Artillerie-Ersatz-Abteilung 63 in Landsberg/Lech. He went Missing in Action on December 16, 1942. Declared death! No further info.
