Short clip of Div Langemarck?

We've seen the above photo of the troops unloading from lorries with panzerschreks, and the speculation that they were Charlemagne although it's more likely that they were from the 27. SS-Freiwilligen-Grenadier-Division Langemarck. Anyway, I finally stumbled across a very short video clip of the film the frame was taken from. Apologies if this is old news: https://youtu.be/sS4HlgjwmD8?t=221

Hello Le Page,

This is indeed the Division Langemarck in end. 1944-1945 around Stargard Poland somewhere if i am not mistaken.

I saw the clip but i can't find it.

Hello Le page,

Here another foto of that clip with the man in the middle clearly vissible a flemish lion on his sleeve.

I believe they were dismounting at Suchan Poland.
