Hello
I ask a question about Frontaufklärungsgruppe and Frontaufklärungstrupp earlier, but the question was probably set incorrectly and I have wrong numbers mentioned in there(300 and 600 series of units). I have found bits and pieces of the subject here and other forums, but not comprehensive explanations .
So I hope, that after reviewing my question again, in little bit of different form, somebody can help me ?
- Are the Frontaufklärungsgruppe and Frontaufklärungstrupp as reconnaissance units ?
- What was level and scope of the operation, if there were used for recce ( tactical or strategic ) ?
- What was the organization, equipment and personal strength ?
I understand that there were different numbering series for different units ( 100,200 series):
- Was there more numbers ( for example, 300, 400 ) ?
- What was the meaning of numbers, was it something to do with the TOE or level of functions ( tactical or strategic ) ?
- What was the higher echelon of command, where they part of bigger units: regiment, division level or even theater level ?
- Is there any good material ( books ) of the subject ?
I know there are lots of question here, but I hope that somebody can help me in this issue.
