Re: Strength of 10. Panzergrenadier-Division in July 43

Then you should write clearer. I referred to your statement "К тому же из таблицы выпали 10, 20, и 25 панцергернадерские дивизии, имевшие в своем составе 54 Мардера. " Anyway thanks for information.

Best Regards from Russia,

Re: Tank combats 17.04-5.05.1944 at Carpathian Mountains

In a matter of minutes the entire II./PzR 23 was shot to pieces by a handful of Soviet ISU-152 sp guns. While on 20.4 the Abteilung reported 45 Panthers (39 operational), on 23.4. it had only 7 Panth...
