Greetings Panzerwreckers. Michel Van den Berghe got in touch recently with an exact location of the M36 TDs at Büsbach from page 103 of Forgotten Archives 2: Konrad – Adenauer Strasse. Thanks Michel.

From ‘Current Reports from overseas No.82’, I found this narrative of the ‘Raamsdonk Terrier Battle’ as featured in Panzerwrecks 18, pages 66-73: Introduction 1. This report of an action by a troop of Sherman tanks and an infantry platoon affords a good example of quick thinking and initiative on the part of individual tank commanders. […]
I’ve mentioned this before, on Facebook, but Panzerwrecks did not publish Duel in the Mist 1, so it is not ours to reprint. We published volumes 2 & 3, with 4 ‘in the works’.
Predrag Blanusa touched base a couple of months back, with useful nuggets of information about the RSO on page 73 of PW1. Over to Predrag: I was recently expanding one of my databases with information from several Waffen-SS documents, when I stumbled upon a familiar license plate number – SS-224 784. The source for my […]
Daniele Guglielmi, long-time ‘friend of Panzerwrecks family’ sent in some additional information regarding some of the subjects in Panzerwrecks 19: Yugoslavia. Over to you Daniele: Pages 10 and 11, one of the Semovente L40 da 47/32 is an early production (it had the side hatch, even if welded shut in the factory), the other one is […]
Rudi Schoeters dropped me a line a wee while back (March!) about some of the vehicles in Panzerwrecks 16: Bulge, and only now do I get the time to add his information to the blog. Over to Rudi: Page 37 The Pz.Beob.Wg.III in Houffalize: the top left pic shows clearly that this vehicle has two different […]
Just realized that I made a near-perfect “Now” picture of the Middelburg Stadthuis on p.55 in PW18 when I was on holiday in the Netherlands in August this year. It lacked the situational awareness that I had seen the picture a month before in your pdf-file. But the penny dropped when flipping through the book. […]
Interestingly enough, on 23 April 1945, the 47th AFA Bn fired Concentration 52 at a “20mm on truck,” using 25 rounds of M48 and 2 rounds of WP. “Effect: vehicle destroyed, burning.” The 234/1? They also threw in a lot of Pozit-fuzed rounds: April 12 con.15 Personnel, 68 Rds M54, 20 Pozit. April 13 con.14 […]
Every once in a while, when deadlines loom and Lee and I are having a “Hurtgen Forest” Moment (each wishing to kill the other, but each too mentally and physically exhausted to lift a finger), it is inevitable that information comes to light that can only seem tangential to the subject matter at hand, and […]
For those interested, here is a map of the post-war partition of Austria.
