Could someone straighten out my confusion about Wehrmacht staff titles?
There are Ia, b,c, etc. How would these correspond to US G-1, 2, etc, and is there a position similar to deputy commander &/or chief of staff?
Thanks for any info...

In higher staffs (corps, army) there are often separate officers for these tasks.

I b/WuG G 4 - Weapons and equipment
I b/Kfz G 4 - vehicles / Technical staff officer, responsible for maintenance
I c G 2
