Okay, gotcha'. I think part of the problem is the German habit of forming ad hoc kampfgruppen under the command of various headquarters. Fundamentally as I understand it, Salerno was fought by the Germans by two divisional combat groupings, HG in the north against 10 Corps and 16. Panzer in the south against VI Corps. It was only in the latter stages of the battle during the withdrawal to the Volturno that things got more sorted out in neater divisional sectors.Carl Schwamberger wrote: ↑18 Jul 2019, 05:06I was referring to the books I'd previously mentioned. The several authors identify the reinforcements from the north, but are weaker about those from the south. I was not referring to the information you provided, (and thanks for that btw).
So the 16. Panzer-Division northern reinforcements opposing VI Corps were coming from divisional units at Battipaglia and Eboli, although it is possible some bits of HG and 15. Panzergrenadier got into the mix as well. Those ill-defined ones from the south were mostly 29. Panzergrenadier and 26. Panzer elements.
