OBERST ERHARD GROSAN - Information/photos request

Post by kgwilliams »

Can anyone help with some information or photos of a certain Oberst Erhard Grosan.

Oberst Grosan was the last Commander of the Panzer Truppen Schule at Bergen-Belsen and then went on to form the Kampfgruppe Grosan in April 1945.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks.

Great pic. But der Oberst wears his EK I, but not his EK II? Not a bar or a ribbon? (Sorry, I just remember another discussion about this)
