What was a Versehrtenkompanie?

Hi all

I have an 'attestation' document produced by the '4. Versehrtenkompanie, Gross - Hamburg' on 6th December 1945. The document confirms the service, promotions and awards of a Luftwaffe officer who lost his Soldbuch at the close of the war.

I would be grateful if anyone can explain the role of this organisation and translate its name - I think it literally means 'disabled company' but is it better translated 'veterans'?

Any help will be much appreciated.
