Hi Kamen, sorry for the late reply but i've been cut off from the internet in the past few days. Well, this is the first time I hear about the different designation system - most fascinating! This of course clears up all the mess! :idea: Thank you for your time and efforts in clearing this up, Kamen...

Just noticed your last post, this clears up a lot of mess! I have to apologize myself to both you and Mr. Ungváry, as I have misinterpreted his words. Here is a verbatim translation of the combat at Törökbálint from his book: Also during that night ( 23/12 ), the armoured group of the FHH (Panzer Di...

Hi Kamen, I have always respected the high quality of your posts, including your last one. Still, I don't agree in some points. Related to Gr. Pape, I relied on secondary sources, Norbert Számvéber's Erőd a Dunán and Krisztián Ungváry's Budapest Ostroma. Both are well researched monographies relying...

Hi Kamen, many data seem to be the same in our sources, nice post. The Pape Group didn't arrive - it was rather mustered.

Sure, 24/12, the 110. TB and the 32. MRB cut all the roads leading to Budapest from the west. The 170. TB (Colonel N.P. Chunikhin) pushed forward towards Mány-Sárisáp. 25/12, the 170. TB reached Tata. The brigade then turned north, but suffered a loss of 4 T-34s and was halted at Dorog by a German F...

The 23. Hungarian Reserve Division evacuated the town through the Mária Valéria bridge at 06.30 on the 26/12/44. One hour later, German engineers then blew up the bridge between Esztergom and Párkány on the other side of the Danube - the bridge was not repaired until the 1990s. From the Soviet side,...

Sturm-Brigade Südost
Hi, I'm looking for information about the so-called Sturm-Brigade Südost that shows up in the OKW OoB for 30/4/45 under LXIX. AK, HGr E. Any info including composition, commander etc is welcome. Is there any connection between this unit and the so-called Division(sgruppe) zbV Fischer ? Thanks, Abel
