It is a map showing the efforts of part of their forces for 8 July 1943. How can it be that they are counter-attacking out of Teterevino (ТЕТЕРЕВИНО) westwards towards the German held Necaevka (НЕЧАЕВКА) on the 8th when Das Reich claim to have taken the place the day before??
There are several pencil annotations on the map showing time/date. Two mention 8.7.43, none mention 7.7.43
The narrative going that the map illustrates is found in the part dated 8.7.43 not the 7.7.43 section.
Edited to add.
I have resolved the conundrum. My mistake. Wrong Teterevino!!!!
The frontline on the 8th accords with the 4.Gds.Tk.Bde map. Das Reich got close, but did not take that Teterevino on the 7th. The one they took was the smaller one further north. See map below.
