Hi
I'd really like to know...who was in command
of the VolksGrenadier Divisions..and what was the name from this Commanding group?
Koen
VolksGrenadiere
What Timo has said is correct and that a lot of the VGD units were previously front line divisions that through combat had been reduced in numbers or destroyed, and were thus re-constituted as VGD units. Some VGD units actually served in the Replacement Army until being posted to the Field Army. The Replacement Army until July'44 was under the command of Generaloberst Fritz Fromm then it passed to Himmler, for what period I do not know.
