Weapons data assistance

About to play an early scenario (1939) and I noticed the German's have a "Schutzen 37a"; I am assuming infantry platoon?

Does anyone know what a "Schutzen 37a" is?

Thank you,

Pat

Since it was almost a year ago and brief I tried to look up why there would be a need a for two types of 1937 infantry. It might be found here:

http://www.geocities.com/Pentagon/6931/regiment1c.html

I think the reference is to the cessation of creating new Panzer Divisions and the addition of Motorized Divisions and/or "Light Divisions". Designation "a" or "b" may be explained by that. But, I plan to look further into it. You could highlight the unit in the scenario and press your "F2" key to see what the unit info says?
