coe Posted February 26, 2003 Share Posted February 26, 2003 These are actually curiosity questions of historical nature 1. does anyone know of sources describing German troops experiences in the French Foreign Legion fighting in Indochina...(I'm interested in how they viewed the fighting over there as opposed to the european theatre. 2. Can someone explain the numbering system of the German divisions This is where the confusion is There was a 1st infantry division, a 1st armoured division, 2nd inf, 2 armoured, etc. however then you had things like 116 Panzer 56th panzer Korp, 901 Panzergrenadier regiment... (No I won't believe you if you tell me that honestly there were 115 other panzer division and 900 panzer grenadier regiments and 55 other panzer korps.)

SgtMuhammed Posted February 26, 2003 Share Posted February 26, 2003 I can't remember the exact proceedures they used but I seem to recall that they tended to number everything in series. Regiments of a certain time and type were all 100s or 200s, etc. I used to know of a book, never read it but my Lt. told me about it, about the German FL guys in SE Asia but I can't for the life of me remember the title. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
