Kavallerie-Divisionen questions
Posted: Wed Jul 30, 2008 2:29 am
Hi all,
Can anyone tell me about the supporting units that were part of the Reichsheer Kavallerie-Divisionen?
The Reiter-Regimente and their composition are all clear (well…..reasonably clear) but I haven’t been able to find anything about the divisions having Aufklärungs- or Pioniere- and other such units. Also wondering about divisional artillery or an artillery regiment, did they have such a thing? Composition of the Divisionsstab is also a very dark grey area.
And a question about “Kavallerie der Wehrmacht” by Klaus Christian Richter, I’m thinking of buying this book but would like an opinion of fellow members about its quality before I do so.
Any and all information is most welcome, thanks in advance,
Best regards,
Paul
