A very interesting post was put up about the Narva battles elsewhere here. In those series of battles Steiner's III SS Korps played a pivotal role. I have Steiner listed as commanding the VI SS Korps by June 44, south of Pskov (with 15th & 19th SS Lettische) and I am getting the feeling this may not be the case. If anyone can clarify this it would be appreciated.
