Need Dog Tag help

[19KUBAN43]

I own 2 battlefield dig up dog tags "erkunnungsmarke". Both are complete having both halves of the disc. So, I'm assuming these are the tags of troops taken prisoner, not killed in action. They are both from the same unit. The information on the tags is as follows:

"3/ERS.BTL. S 13"
"114"

"3/ERS.BTL. S 13"
"108"

So the 114 and 108 are the troop number correct?

ERS.BTL. means "ersatz batallion" or replacement battallion correct?

What does the "3" and "S13" signify?
Can anyone tell me what kind of a unit this was and where it may have saw action?

[stab131]

"3/ERS.BTL. S 13"

3d Company Replacement Battalion ? 13

Roster number 114 and roster number 108

S is usually the abbreviation for "heavy."

That would seem to make this 3d company, replacment battlion 13 heavy, but that doesn't seem to make sense.

Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

Thanks for the information.

The "S" is an abbreviation for "Schweres" than usually? Thank You.

Unfortunately there is nothing after the "S" just "S.13" on both tags.

Your help is appreciated.

Might you have images of either of these discs?

I have tried to scan these dog togs, but the scans just don't show anything. So, no, I don't have any images of them. Do you have an ideqa of wat they might be from the information I listed in previous posts?

Unfortunately, no- that's why I asked about a picture- the markings just don't make sense to me. Are you absolutely certain it's an 'S' and not a '5'? There was a Grenadier Ersatz Bataillon 513...

I'm of the opinion that this could be 'Ersatz Bataillon Schützen 13'- it's in a weird order of course, it should be 'Schützen Ersatz Bataillon 13), but I have seen discs marked in odd orders before... does this seem plausable to anyone else?
