Separate names with a comma.
The first question is who reported to whom. I can imagine higher headquarters demanded answers on what happened. This higher HQ could be OB West,...
Pat, I may know someone willing to copy this at the Archive.
You're welcome Pat. I did not go through the photograph collection, so no luck there. Working on a to-do list for next time and will put those...
Just returned to from a trip to the Dutch National Archives. Photographed much of the logs of the Soemba and Flores. Unfortunately the logs...
It's just south of Ravenoville, where the D15 meets the D14 which runs paralel to the coast. It's the farm complex east of the D14
Based on that link Stp 178 Kellergeist (Mont Plouvin) seems to have been the most important. It had a Mammut Cäsar and a Freya. It also seems to...
You're welcome Pat. These raids have been special to me since as I kid I've often been confronted by a memorial to the tragic fate of PREMIUM,...
Alright, let's begin ;-) [Pat, feel free to move this post to a more appropriate location.] 27-28 September 1941 14-15 August 1942 2-3...
FWIW, I do have some German records on some of these raids: 27-28 September 1941 14-15 August 1942 2-3 September 1942 12-13 September 1942 3-4...

Jan, I've sent you an email. If it didn't get through, send me a PM with your address and I'll email a higher resolution map ASAP.
Original German map. Blocked railroads on 13 June. [attachment=232]
The maps are sufficient in quality. The problem is the microfilm quality: both low resolution and black and white, while the originals were in...
Hi Pat, unfortunately I have little information on units that were outside of the 7.Armee sector/control before the invasion. I do have some maps...
I'd say any yard is a viable target. Its location is fairly important and at the same time you can block a significant railroad. As for its size,...
You're assuming the intel and/or book was right.... I've taken a quick look in the transport records of 7. Armee and I see no reason to expect any...
Rendezvouz with Destiny states:
Just to come back to Maj. Krüger: Members of Feldkommandatur 748 (Rennes) also confirm he was in charge of the POW camp. These men appear to have...
Just for the record: another photo of a Glider in similar position (although in a better state)...
Entirely new to me. The footage does contain stuff around SME as well though. The StuG appears to be one of those destroyed at SME.
