Thanks MadDog, that is exactly the information I was looking for. I went to the sturmpanzer website and I started downloading all of the information on the divisions that took part in the Ardennes counteroffensive. It is interesting that you brought up Dupuy, as I am currently reading his "Hitl...

Hello Everyone, I am in the process of doing some research on the casulties reported by the Germans during the "battle of the bulge". I know that information is on the captured German records at NARA. Now, since I am new to this whole process, I need to know the following information: A. W...

Thank you very much Christian and John. I shall take a look at that website and see what I can find. Thanks again!

Hi Tom, Yeah, that is kinda what I was thinking too, that there were probably 100 dead/wounded German on the hill from the day/days figthing from American Artillery, Jabo's, small arms fire, machine guns etc. And I would also agree, Mr. Bonn does seem to be a meticulous researcher and he describes a...

Hi all, Sid, I agree completely with you. If he had killed off 100 Germans, and wounded 200-300 more, he would have destroyed an entire batallion single handedly!! They would have given him the Congressional medal of honor right there on the spot! It does not seem even remotely feasable. Which is ra...

I am in the process of reading Keith Bonn's book "When the Odds were Even" and I came across a passage on page 200 which describes an attack by the 37th SS Panzergrenadier Regt. (17th SS Pz.Gren. Div.). Here is the full passage "As the assaulting Waffen SS men blew through the batalio...

I agree. Although it has been many years since I read that book, it tells the story of what happened to the eastern Germans at the hands of the Russian armies very well. At times I almost had to put the book down, do to the brutal stories which Mr. De Zeyas relates. I believe he is one of the most o...

Hi Sid, Thanks so much for those figures. Those are excellent figures (very precise). I am assuming that they originated from original OKW/OKH documents. The number of casulties that the Germans suffered in Poland (occupying Poland) is very interesting. I just bought the book "Rising '44" ...

Hi Everyone, Thanks Kristian for those numbers, even though I would say they are definately way too high. I would agree with you Sid, that many of the casulties suffered by the Germans in the Ukraine, could well have been troops from other nations. So, when Kosyk states in his book "The Third R...

According to Henri Michel, the Germans suffered 175,000 dead in the battle against the Ukrianian partisans, which is a figure I find completely unbelievable. To suffer 175,000 dead, would mean that the total casulties (and this is just a guess on may part), dead AND wounded, would probably have to b...

I am currently reading the book "The Shadow War: European Resistance 1939-1945" by Henri Michel. On page 279 he paraprahes a "Colonel Teske" as saying that 175,000 German soldiers were killed by partisans in the Ukraine alone. Unfortunately, this book is absolutely worthless, in ...

Hello again Gentlemen,

I have found a website that will give me just about everthing I need. Here it is http://members.tripod.com/~Sturmvogel/heer-obscure.html

Hello Gentlemen,

Yes, I understand it is a rather daunting task. But I will continue to search until I find some website or book that lists all of these independant units.

Brian B.

I need a comprehensive OOB for all of the miscellaneous units of the Wehrmacht in June (or late spring, early summer) of 1943. I have a decent OOB for the first week of July in the Kriegtagesbuch des Oberkommandos der Wehrmacht III2, but it only list the divisions and brigades/regiments for all of t...

I agree with Erich, http://www.tollehausbooks.com is absolutely a fantastic online site by buy WWII books. Very cheap new books, fast service and a large selection of new books. I also will definately agree with everyone about Articles of War. As a matter of fact I just ordered two books from there ...
