No idea to be honest, when I looked for the FPN it gave HKAA 475 as result. Don't know where you found the FPNs?

Yep that's the book! I honestly don't think you'll regret picking it up! Recieved some news it will be mid September when the books will be available in the EU, as the container is still at sea!

I'm very satisfied to see yet another effort in offering research material in a digitized way (e.g. Richard Hedrick's sturmpanzer.com, John Moore's Führerliste). As the original intention was to aid researchers and to cover some of Feldgrau's costs, the maps should - in my opinion - be offered at a ...

The combat zone of the 12.SS-Pz.Div. and 2.SS-Pz.Div. ran from Lustin to Givet, where there they found connection with the 2.Pz.Div. (also part of the I.SS-Pz.Korps)

Some fighting took place in early September 1944, during the German retreat. I.SS-Pz.Korps was holding part of the Meuse against elements of the 9th US Infantry Division, 3rd Armoured Division and 4th Cavalry Group. At least elements of the 2.SS and 12.SS were involved in the fighting.

No idea what is in the book on Stoltz, but I have collected some information myself over the years. Hauptsturmführer Georg-Günter was born on December 5th, 1909 in Oderberg. He joined the SS in a very early stage (Nr. 14550) and served as Untersturmführer and Adjutant of the I./LSSAH in February 193...

John,

In fact the information can be found in Volume 1 and not Volume 2 as I wrote earlier! Sorry for the inconvenience.

Agricola, As you don't seem to be familiar with the Führerliste I'll explain it to you. What Mr. Moore posted is the full name of Fiedler, his birthdate, his SS Number and the different positions he held during the war. I also have some information on Fiedler. He served in I./SS-Pz.Gren.Rgt.2 during...

I quite like it, small little book with nice information on 'Der Dritten'. Well only thing you have to keep in mind while reading is that most of it was written from memory by the veterans.
