Documents of SS-Division "Charlemagne"
hello, is there any members whos special interest is in the "Charlemagne" unit and who would aid in in researching 5 Charlemagne documents ( sorry I cannot show them on here, ive tried to post images before and im either to old or stupid ) , ive pretty much researched them all and all seem correct in every way, dates, places, names etc, black light clear, only one error I can find is SS-Hauptsturmführers de Bourmount name spelt as de Boumant? , quick list of items,
1. letter dated 1st march 1945 to regiment of marche SS-Obersturmführer Fenet, from SS-Haupt monneuse
subject , defensive line SS-Brigadeführer Krukenberg direction
Korlin about Bärwalde/defence settings in south western flank Pommern with Wehrmacht units ( inf-mot 3 ) over 2 days hold soviet troops from north east
2. letter dated 2nd march in Neustettin, requirement to SS-Brigadeführer Krukenberg, again from monneuse
by immence bombardment of north east have occurred decimation, armed defence makes it big gaps at the edge of south flank, but push has to come from us, send them immediately two units back,otherwise there is very strong signs of disintegration even in south west direction, our scenes here are not good, soviets are very strong, north east, much artillery
3. letter dated 2nd march 1945 in Neustettin to Fenet from monneuse
soviets troops jerk north east, no longer possible to hold, Wehrmacht on retreating Bärwalde, we will pull back south west
4. letter dated 6th march in Korlin to de Bourmont from SS-Sturmführer le Soms, reg marche
we are here in Korlin absolutely cut of by soviets , tonight it is trying to dodge the north west opposite the direction of the forest army ( ? ) , his units move Ramelow every direction, very strong opposition in Belgrade would have to be even smaller units of regimental reserve are, our troop status is about 300 men, equipment maintenance is fine
5. letter dated 6th march 1945 order to de Bourmont , from monneuse
immediate settings in Korlin , leave Belgrade in direction, swerve & collide with 1st regiment marche towards west-west south , join 6 oclock evening time clock, motorcyclist remain with unit
just a few notes, sorry for my german translation ( google translator & dictionary ) when I say letters some are more scraps of paper, 4 have maps of front lines and name places, and units scribbled on
anyway if anyone has a keen interest in SS-Division "Charlemagne" and could private message me, maybe look over at what I have via email, I would be interested in your thoughs, also all where marked for dispatch rider, and all in german,
regards kevin

Re: Documents of SS-Division "Charlemagne"
Quite interesting Kevin.
I am designing scenarios for SPWaW and I did some about the Sturmbrigade Frankreich in Galicie.
I have a number of other scenarios about the SS Charlemagne Division in preparation and have already some maps finished (Körlin, Elsenau...).
Reliable information about Charlemagne are fairly difficult to find (names are generally aliasses).
If you agree I would very much like to share your documents and info.
I am fluent in german and will have no problem.
Thanks in advance.
François

Be careful.
Theses documents are probably false!!
There are many errors, and it seems to "beautiful" to be right.

What's the provenance of the documents? That will play a part in determining if they are fake or not.

no provenance sadly, a friend who lives in france picked them up in a house clearance, which leads to another question how did they get to france when the charlemagnes last stand was in berlin?

Re: Documents of SS-Division "Charlemagne"
Wow. How interesting. Any chance one of the former house owners or tenants was a 33rd SS veteran?
