Re: Convoy Makeup?
Well, I try my best:
mit 4 Führern
14 Unterführern
145 Mann
24 Kfz. 12
2 Kfz. 15
1 l.Pkw
6 Lkw
15 S (schwere?) Kräder
6 B.Kräder (B for Beiwagen? = motorcycles with sidecar)
12 Geschütze
12 Muni Anhänger (ammo trailers)
4. Zug kann nicht mitgeführt werden, er bleibt mit 31 Mann u. Feldküche in ???
(4th platoon can't be carried along, it stays with 31 men and field kitchen in ???)
The only thing I can decipher in the last paragraph is "umkämpft"
Hope that helps.

Re: Convoy Makeup?
Danke, Helmut! That does help!
I think that last bit has to do with 14.Kp., but I have no idea what!

Re: Convoy Makeup?
Any chance this unit was in Finland? In that case:
4. Zug kann nicht mitgeführt werden, er bleibt mit 31 Mann u. Feldküche in Kemijärvi
14.Kp. marschiert nach Kuusamo und meldet Ankunft
Last word looks like signature to me...

Adding the last word to GregSingh's transcription: it looks to me like "fernmündl." (fernmündlich-by phone).
