Hi Rich, I hope i'm not asking too much :) I guess that where their original positions, but how did they react after the allied landing on 6th June, where did they moved? When the 82nd Airborne landed around the Merderet river, which units defended it? attacked them? This map describes most of the d...

Thank you Ron!

This is some very good information, I had the feeling that they did had StuG IV's. The photos showed in the book "the Panzer and the battle of Normandy, by Georges Bernage" did not lie.

Only the information is little, but correct.

Can you find anymore information, if other battalions/kompanies had StuG III, or/and StuG IV?

To me this doesnt say the Heimdal book is wrong.

Thank you,

Koen

On the internet you can find loads of information about the American assault on Brecourt manor, my question is what is the german story behind this, which german unit operated the Battery?

I have several clues, but i'd like to be sure about it.

Hi

I have seen that page before, and does not contains the information i'm searching, and besides the page doesn't work properly.

I'd like to know where they where stationed, and if they did not defend Brecourt manor who did?

Thank you for your reply.

Does someone had more information related to the AR 191,

I have read in a report, that several elements of the AR 191 where stationed at st mairie du mont during D-day, they fled west wards.
Where they the ones that also defended the Brecourt manor batteries?

I'm preforming a research about the defensive forces in the cotentin peninsula ( Utah Beach etc.)

I hope anyone could help me finding more information about the 795 Ost battalion, that where stationed near st maire eglise.
