DonC Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 Hi All -I was wondering if anyone could recommend a good book that details the German Army Order of Battle from 1939-1945, either one book or a series, in English preferably, but I could make do with my schoolboy German. I am specifically looking for unit designations, parent units, and where they were posted/engaged. As always, any help appreciated!Don Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bernhard H.Holst Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 Hello Don.I found " German Order of Battle, The regiments, formations and units of the German ground forces " quite helpful.This book was apparently prepared by British Intelligence for the 1944 Landings in Normandie.It was reprinted since its first edition for the public in 1975 withISBN 1-85367 170-3Bernhard H.

gjw Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 Hi, I have a book entitled "Hitlers Legions" it gives a make up of units and history of all the ground divisions (Heer, LFD, Para, SS and KM) While not a true OB its very well done and a very good reference (IMHO) I think you can get one on Amazon or Abebooks.Good Luck!Greg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
