The very last picture I believe is a German dog tag. American prisoner of war tags issued by the Germans look similar. Upon death the tag could be broken in half with half going back to the home land and the other half remaining with the body.

Cant find anything about this unit. But "FeldersatzKompanien" where very common. This were replacement troops to cover the losses in the field.
You can send a request to http://www.dd-wast.de/ It will take some time to get an answer, but worth a try.
