I have 3 covers from the german 87th infantry division mailed over 5 days in the courtland pocket. Can someone tell me how to find the feldpost number of this unit.

Re: can some one tell me the feldpost number
Hello Douglas
I've 4 pages with +100 FpNrs assigned to this divison.
The FpNr of the writer (or adressee) should be on the cover.
If you post those Nr here, we could identify the (sub)unit very easy.

This Division had lots of FpNr.douglas5102 wrote:I have 3 covers from the german 87th infantry division mailed over 5 days in the courtland pocket. Can someone tell me how to find the feldpost number of this unit.

Hi Warnach,
there is no feldpost numbers on the covers, just the unit. I am putting it in my exhibit, "should I just say out of 100 feldpost numbers since there is not one on the covers There is noway to know the feldpost." unless i can translate the letters the answer may be there, but i don't see any numbers.

Hello Douglas,
As you state " without FpNr there is no way to determine the sub-unit" (except if the writer mentions it in the letters itself, but that wasn't allowed)
