92 Infantry Division

[carrera73rs]

Hello all,
I just received word from the WASt that my Uncle was with the 12 Kompanie 1059 Grenadier-Regiment 92 Infantry Division and was captured 4 June 1944 in Rome.
Does anyone have any information on who this Unit/Division may have been facing or where I could find it, Google has not been my friend so far?
Thank you
Kirk

All what I found is over here:
http://www.lexikon-der-wehrmacht.de/Gli ... GR1059.htm
and click further on 362 Infanterie Division
You have also a book about the 362 I.D.:
Kampf um Rom - Inferno am Po. Der Weg der 362. Infanterie-Division 1944/45 - Heinz Greiner, Kurt Vowinckel Verlag, Neckargemünd 1968
Sorry for my poor english
Kindly regards from belgium
Prosper

If your main interest is focused on the fighting and who your uncle's regiment/division was facing in battle, then here is a bibliography of 73 titles dealing with the Italian Campaign 1943-45. You should be able to find at least a dozen among them that cover the March-June 1944 period around the Rome area.
