The division consisted mainly of Thuringians, with significant numbers of Saxons and Prussians, and (later) with draftees from other parts of Germany. The bulk of its troops came from the 3rd (Motorized) Cavalry Division at Weimar and the II Motor Transport Demonstration Command (Kraftfahr-Lehrkommando II) in the Thueringen (Wehrkreis IX) region. The majority of the divisional staff came from the Lehr command, and the operations staff was from the 3rd Cavalry Division. The signal battalion was formed around the 6th (Signal) Company of the 16th Cavalry Regiment. The staff of the rifle brigade was largely taken from the 1st Motorcycle Rifle Battalion at Langensalza, and many of the brigade's men came from the I/16th Cavalry Regiment at Erfurt. The 1st Rifle Regiment was formed in Weimar from the 11th Cavalry Regiment and I/14th Infantry Regiment (Rifle Regiment Meiningen). The staffs of the 1st Panzer Brigade and 1st Panzer Regiment were from I/Motor Transport Demonstration Command Ohrduf and their personnel were from the 5th and 6th (Prussian) Cavalry Regiments. The 2nd Panzer Regiment at Eisenach was formed from the former 7th Cavalry Regiment Breslau and part of the II/Kraftfahr-Lehrkom-mando Ohrdruf. That summer the 4th Motorized Reconnaissance Battalion had already been formed from the 4th (Leipzig) Motor Transport Battalion, and the 37th Panzerabwehr (Antitank) Battalion formed at Eisenach/Muehlhausen around cadres supplied by the 3/5th Motorized Transport Battalion at Kassel.

Download or read book Panzer Operations written by Erhard Raus and published by Da Capo Press. This book was released on 2009-04-28 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing from post-war reports commissioned by U.S. Army intelligence, World War II historian Steven H. Newton has translated, compiled, and edited the battle accounts of one of Germany's finest panzer commanders and a skilled tactician of tank warfare. Throughout most of the war, Erhard Raus was a highly respected field commander in the German-Soviet war on the eastern front, and after the war he wrote an insightful analysis of German strategy in that campaign.The Raus memoir covers the Russian campaign from the first day of the war to his relief from command at Hitler's order in the spring of 1945. It includes a detailed examination of the 6th Panzer Division's drive to Leningrad, Raus's own experiences in the Soviet winter counteroffensive around Moscow, the unsuccessful attempt to relieve Stalingrad, and the final desperate battles inside Germany at the end of the war. His battlefield experience and keen tactical eye make his memoir especially valuable for scholars, and his narrative is as readable as Heinz Guderian's celebrated Panzer Leader.

Download or read book Panzer written by S. Hart and published by Zenith Press. This book was released on 1999 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This pictorial record follows the rise of Germany's armored forces from the origins of the 1st Panzer Division in 1935, to their deployment in the Spanish Civil War and the spectacular Blitzkrieg campaigns of 1939-1941, and through the final years of the World War II, when panzers fought savage battles against technically and numerically superior foes. This dramatic rise and fall of the panzers is told, in part, with 250 intriguing photographs, the majority of them never before published. Included among them are images of top-secret tank training maneuvers in the 1930s, held in contravention of the Treaty of Versailles; images taken by crewmembers while in active service; and dramatic photos of rank battles. These strong visual elements are accompanied by a narrative from one of the world's top World War II German military experts, who describes panzer technological development, tactics, and the battles themselves.

Book Synopsis The Blitzkrieg Legend by : Karl-Heinz Frieser
Download or read book The Blitzkrieg Legend written by Karl-Heinz Frieser and published by Naval Institute Press. This book was released on 2013-01-15 with total page 594 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here, for the first time in English, is an illuminating German perspective on the decisive blitzkrieg campaign. The account, written by the German historian Karl-Heinz Frieser and edited by American historian John T. Greenwood, provides the definitive explanation for Germany’s startling success and the equally surprising military collapse of France and Britain on the European continent in 1940. In a little over a month, Germany defeated the Allies in battle, a task that had not been achieved in four years of brutal fighting during World War I. First published in 1995 as the official German history of the 1940 campaign, this book goes beyond standard explanations to show that the German victory was not inevitable and that French defeat was not preordained. Contrary to most accounts of the campaign, Frieser’s illustrates that the military systems of both Germany and France were solid and that their campaign plans were sound. The key to victory or defeat, Frieser argues, was the execution of operational plans—both preplanned and ad hoc—amid the eternal Clausewitzian combat factors of friction and the fog of war. He shows why, on the eve of the campaign, the British and French leaders had good cause to be confident and why many German generals were understandably concerned that disaster was looming for them. This study explodes many of the myths concerning German blitzkrieg warfare and the planning for the 1940 campaign. Frieser’s groundbreaking interpretation of the topic has been the subject of discussion since the German edition first appeared. This English translation is published in cooperation with the Association of the United States Army.
