Original German WWII identity tag, stamped 40 / 2. Feldgend. Kp. 551 (mot) — 2nd Feldgendarmerie-Kompanie 551 (motorized), roster number 40, with blood group A stamped on the side.

The Feldgendarmerie was the German military police, responsible for traffic control, rear-area security and discipline enforcement — instantly recognizable in the field by their metal gorgets, which earned them the nickname Kettenhunde ("chained dogs"). Feldgendarmerie tags appear on the market far less frequently than regular infantry examples, making this a desirable piece for collectors of military police items.
