Can anyone help with this topic, I know the Corps consisted of the 45th and 134th infantry divisions but I am interested in the other attachments. The 134th unit history mentions Sturmgeschutze during the battle for Yelets.
Thanks in advance

Slightly off topic from the original question but I contacted the NARA regarding the copyright of their holdings of German Military records and their reply was; 19 November, 2004 NWCTM-0410425-TKN Robert Westby e-mail: westbee@msn.com Dear Mr. Westby: This is in response to your recent inquiry to th...

Thanks K-pp, I did a forum search on the topic and found lots of information. The question of the photograhs is still a bit unclear to me since it appears as though they belong to the photographer for 70 years after his death.

I have an original wartime magazine titled "Unser Kampf im Norden - Eine Ruckschau auf das Jahr 1941" from my grandfather who served in the Luftwaffe in Norway. This magazine was produced by the Army propaganda officer of the Norway command (FP 07626). Is this magazine copyrighted?

Looking for opinions on this book before buying

Jason, check your email, I sent you a scan of the "Reich" TOE which is slightly different than the one on Dan's page. I scaned mine from the 46th Panzer Corps microfilm from the NARA. The main difference is that SS Rgt. 11 only has 2 instead of the 3 battalions shown on the other TOE. Dans...

Wow, thanks for sharing your letters with us. They are extraordinary and sure put a human face to the events that are typically described in such a matter of fact detached fashion. M interest in Shatalowka came about during my research on Yelnya. The Panzer Group 2 KTB first mentions the airfield on...

This is the Panzer Group 2 KTB for July 28 and describes the revised command structure in orders for future operations; (excuse the rough translation, it has not been checked) Panzer Group 2 KTB – 28 July 1941 (Monday) Group Headquarters Forest near Prudki, (45 km. south southeast of Smolensk). Weat...

Does anyone which Luftwaffe units were stationed at this airfield between Smolensk and Roslawl from July through September 1941?

Sorry about the MSN web hosting, Im not much of a web site builder and since I use MSN it seemd like a good spot to put some of the information I have gathered. If someone has a website and would like to host the data I would be glad to send it to them.

Thanks Jason, your recommendation is highly valued.

Its a bit bare but its a start. http://groups.msn.com/Yelnia Im translating the KTB's (from the NARA microfilm) for all the units involved in this battle. Hopefully this will turn into a book project in a few years. So far I have completed the month of July (15th - 31st) for the following units; Pan...

Has anyone read or does someone own these books? I'm looking for feedback before I purchase.

Agree with the MG42 as being a great weapon in its class, but I believe the Panzerfaust series also deserves mention, no other Army was able to give their soldiers such a cheap or effective method for a single soldier to (at least believe he could) destroy one of the infantry's worst fears, the tank.
