Panzer Officer Transfers

[John P. Moore]

These lists below from the graduating class of the 1st SS-Panzer Officer Candidate Class at Putlos assign the men to divisional Panzer units. They were later promoted to SS-Untersturmführer in March 1944 in most cases.

Thanks for posting these, John. I enjoy looking through documents of this sort to see if I recognize names. I notice that Rold Reiser and Kurt Köchling are mentioned in Agte's Peiper book and Fischer's Soldiers of the Leibstandarte. And Fritz Kauerauf of sSS-PA 503 is quoted at length in Tieke's Korps Steiner book, with the same material (I believe) repeated in Fey's Armor Battles of the Waffen-SS.

Thanks Marc.

Here are some more Panzer officer transfer order.

The list below from the graduating class of the 1st SS-Panzer Junker Sonder Lehrgang detail the men to the Panzer Truppen Schule Groß-Gleinecke for further training. They were later promoted to SS-Untersturmführer in March 1944 in most cases. This list is not to be confused with the graduating class of the 1st SS-Panzer Junker Lehrgang at the beginning of this thread. This list seems to be somewhat rare because I was looking for an example in better condition in the personnel records of more than 25 other graduates and the same class member list could not be found.

This list from October 1944 assigns some of those same graduates to field units.
