Exactly: Frau Brabant. She is very kind, BTW.

Anybody knows, which German regiment (or division) fought agains the Kovpak brigade in the first days of August, 1943 in Western Ukraine? I found one source, that it was the Gebirgsjägerregiment 26, but it is presumably wrong. Maybe it was not a gebirgs unit (and maybe the number incorrect also) Any...

I know one Hungarian officer also, who had Jewish roots and got the EK II.

I ordered a portrait from Koblenz.

I am seeking a genuine picture of Pz Gen. Willibald von Langermann und Erlenkamp (for a forthcoming publication)
Anybody have a photo of him?

Anybody knows, which German Panzer Division stationed at Sanok, Kamionka II area in the middle of September, 1944?

Thanks in advance,

Csaba

Thanks, Decker, I don't have the books wich contain details of that day (H. Spaeter: Panzerkorps "Großdeutschland" or Thomas L. Jentz: Die deutsche Panzertruppe Band 2) but it's clear for me now.

Thanks again,

Csaba

Anybody know, what does the OZAD mean exactly? They were totally independent? Any info about their structure?

Thanks in advance,

Csaba

Thanks, Rudi, I have only this info also (but if I know, thay made a small counterattack that day, but it was repulsed by the superior Soviet tank brigades, but I don't know the details)

If I know correctly, they had a counter attack on that day. Anybody knows more details of that event? Area, results, etc?

Thanks in advance,

Csaba

The Rumanian ethnic soldiers, who were sent to the front with the 2nd Army were generally not in labour battailons: they were used in the second line service in combatant units.

Your sources and info again not the best. What kind of "official calculation" was the source? The 2nd Army's losses were approx 30 000 (KIA, MIA, WIA) till the end of October, 1942 (mostly during the Operation Blau, and the bridgehead battles) The losses in early 1943 were 96 000 (KIA, MIA...

The 176 000 for the all Hungarian units' losses between 04 1942-04-1943 also impossible.
The 2nd Hungarian Army's losses were less, than 130 000 in this period (KIA, MIA, WIA, incl Jewish labour workers)
