SS Werfer Battery's 521 & 522
Could any of you gentlemen tell me about the SS Werfer Batteries 521 & 522. All info would be greatly appreciated. As my grandfather was a member of each.
Hi JR!
SS-Vielfachwerfer Batterie 521 served alongside the 11.SS - Freiw.Pz.Gren.Div. "Nordland" during a period. (1944 - 45 ?)
It belonged to the III. (Germ.) SS - Pz.Korps and took part at Narva,Lake Peipus och Kurland.
As far as i know it had Opel Maultiers with russiancaptured Katyushas on them.
hope this helps
regards

"Trajedy of the Faithful" has some information about SS-Vielfachwerferbatterie 521, including a couple of (very rare) photo closeups of the vehicles.
Hope this helps - Rob
