Hi Derek,
It is not exactly clear in this photo, but the object you refer to is not actually inside the turret ring but rather the other side of the steel "shield" the trooper is holding open. The steel (if it is steel?) seems to have the markings (3126.5 and the design) printed on one side. Since you think the markings are German, does that place this photo on the continent (Belgium or Holland?)..

AAh yes, now I see that it is part of a shield mock up.
3126.5 doesn't correspond to any standard thickness of a sheet metal, either steel or aluminum. The closest guage to that number is OO guage. You can clearly see that the sheet is no where near that thick. That number may refer to an alloy, although, not being a metallurgist I have no idea what type.
CHIMO!
