Fire Brigades by Kamen Nevenkin will have all the info you need, but it is rather pricy. What is it you're wanting to know?

Many Thanks for the reply.
I have family in that part of the world who have been brought up under communist history! They believe (so does the local literature)that the Dukla battle was one of the biggest tank battles of that period. This I disbelieve and would therefore like to seek more clarity. I am struggling to find actual info so many thanks for the ref to the book.

Thank you
I have visited this site and others. I have also read David Glantz (Forgotten Battles of WWII)
But I find detail is not what I am looking for
Again Thank you
