DBU plate , Fw190 ?

Hello gentlemen ,

I've found a very small plate marked DBU on a Fw190 crash-site in Normandy, what is it related too ?
The pilot is still buried with his plane ( spring 1943 ) but has not been identified yet. Nobody seems to care about this indeed.

Zorglub,

The three letters, “dbu,” that you found on a small plate from an Fw 190 wreck may in fact be a Hersteller (factory) code. If so, they would represent:

Armaturenfabrik Lindner & Co., Rabenstein (Bay).
