Could someone help me out with the identification of this unit? 3rd Bavarian Foot Artillery Regiment? 2nd Batterie? This one, as well as the other markings, has me stumped.
 
Very nice markings. As as far I know FAR= feld artillery regiment, 2B = 2nd battalion, (or battery) and 5C = 5th company.

Thanks Edwin, that is very useful! An interesting presentation on markings. I had a feeling it was the 3rd Bavarian Field Artillery Regiment (not sure why I said "foot" when I had seen a list of regiments earlier), so now it makes sense. :thumb up:
 
After doing some more research, I think this pouch is marked to the 3rd (Brandenburg) Fuss Artillerie Regiment, 2nd Batterie.
