(28.4.1940-19.9.1940) 11. Kolonne Artillerie-Regiment 196, u. gestrichen,
(1.3.1942-7.9.1942) Kriegsmarine-Werft Bordeaux,
(12.3.1943-7.9.1943) Kriegsmarine-Arsenal Bordeaux.

Hi,

"M" stands for Kriegsmarine. So i think, the later number might be given to the Kriegsmarinewerft Bordeaux.

For Artillerieregiment 196 see: http://www.lexikon-der-wehrmacht.de/Gli ... 96ID-R.htm
