Does anyone have any information as to the equipment of the two Panzer-Jäger-Kompnaie of this unit, 612 and 613. All that I have been able to find is tat its third company was Panzer-Kompanie 224 with its Char B2 Flamm tanks.

Have you checked BaMa RH 10/246? Think there are also detailed corps level report somewhere.

Zetterling also covers the battalion in his Normandy book and gives the heavy weapons based on the BaMa file.

Detailed corps level reports can be found in various NARA T-314 rolls regarding LXXXVIII Corps.

Detailed strength reports (including weapons inventories) are available in these rolls, e.g. R-1620 frame no. 11.

Thanks both of you, if only I had access to those. Do they say what equipment, other than 224's tanks, the unit had ?

What period?

(BTW quite a few of the rolls are available for free online, as is BaMa RH 10/246)
