Jagdcarcajou Posted September 27, 2000 Share Posted September 27, 2000 Hey all, I'm putting the finishing touches on an article for the CM Recon site, and I could use a bit of help. Do any of you have any recommendations for a good publisher of U.S. and Brtitish Army OOBs or unit histories? I already have Fedorowicz for the Axis, but I don't know much about the Allies. Any insights are appreciated. Hopefully the article will be up tonight! Chris ------------------ What the hell is a Jagdcarcajou? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris <HR></BLOCKQUOTE> try thegamers.net in the TOAW section I believe they have lots of TO&E and OOB info there (wargamer.com is worth a look too, I believe they have some unit history stuff) regards ------------------ What you see depends mainly upon what you look for.

Sorry, I don't know his full name or his web address, but there is a man w/ the last name of " Nafziger" who has published OOBs for just about every army and battle in history. If you do a search w/ any search engine you should come across his site. ------------------ I'm sorry, we haven't the facilities to take all of you prisoner. Was there anything else?

Red Devils Posted September 27, 2000 Share Posted September 27, 2000 I just checked. It's George Nafziger. If you do a search on this site for his name you will find his site. It should have more info than you need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Airborne Posted September 27, 2000 Share Posted September 27, 2000 Hi Jagd, Try and get World War II Order of Battle by Shelby Stanton. If you can find it, it is a great source for the US Army. Has everything from battalion TO&Es on up. Breaks down all divisions and regiments. There makeup and where they fought. Awesome. Think I got mine online --maybe from Hooked on History. It was used but in pristine condition. Mine is the 1984 edition. Big red cover. Galahad books ISBN 0-88365-775-9 See ya on the battlefield.

Jagdcarcajou Posted September 28, 2000 Author Share Posted September 28, 2000 Thanks for the tip Airborne. Apparently there are quite a few used copies floating around but they are all a bit steep. I already have about $400.00 worth of a German unit history wishlist so it might be a while! =) While I have a thread going, does anyone know of a reliable source of data for how many of each Allied tank was sent to the British, and how many Fireflys were produced by conversions? Thanks again, Chris ------------------ What the hell is a Jagdcarcajou? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D Trooper Posted September 28, 2000 Share Posted September 28, 2000 You might consider my book "Mount up We're Moving out" Merriam Press www.merriam-press.com It's the diary of D Troop, 94th Cav. Recon Sqdron. 14th Armd Div. in combat Alsace to Munich, Nov 44 to May 45. No heroics, just regular guys and how they lived, and what they did in a Cav. Recon Troop plus the attached units from time to time. 50+ pictures and maps. People seem to like it, and it should answer all kinds of questions. If not I'm available too...!
