The State of the Ostheer - May 1942

[KDF33]

Here is the 30 June 1942 strengths (probably Ist) by army from a series of reports on sickness (RW6-552-50, RW6-535., RW6-552, RW6/573):

Richard,

You mention the data is for June 30 here.

Sadly no, since they are the same reports.

But here you mention that your reports do not specify the date.

Did you arrive at a June 30 date indirectly by looking at other data? I have a Iststäerke of 11. Armee dated July 1st, and it shows a total of 170,197 Heerespersonal.

Thank you!

And thanks to per70 for the link to the very interesting discussion with Qvist.

My fault for being unclear. The Krankenbestand figures are for 30 June 1942. The army strength figures were for an unspecified date in June.
