Gepanzerte Aufklärungs Platoons may use the Mounted Assault special rule. TheGepanzerte Aufklärungs platoons have outstanding attack and defensive capabilities. With plenty of machine-guns, enemy infantry will have trouble getting close, especially if your half-tracks are ready as a mobile base of fire. On defence, dismount and dig in on key terrain, keeping down until the fire. In attack, stay mounted unless the enemy has plenty of enemy comes close. Then destroy them with machine-gun anti-tank guns. Take the battle to the enemy. 3 AUFKLÄRUNGS HEAVY PLATOON PLATOON HQ Section with: Sd Kfz 250/1 2 Machine-gun Sections 185 points half-track 1 Machine-gun Section 100 points No Machine-gun Sections 15 points OPTIONS • Add a Gun Section for +80 points. • Add a Mortar Section for +85 points.

On December 15, 1943, Hilter ordered the division to move to the OB West. The division arrived in northern France from December 21 on where they were subordinated to 15.Armee. The transportation finished on January 14, 1944. The division was placed under Panzergruppe West (translation omitted) I./Pz.Rgt.3 was equipped with Panther tanks. They moved for training to Mailly-le Camp by the end of January 1944 with their brand new weapon. During end of January and end of February, they received 79 Panthers and 2 Bergepanthers. The exact date is not known, but I.Abteilung returned to the division apparently mid-March. 2.Panzer-Division received 98 Panzer IVs between end of January and mid February. Records state that Panthers were sent to “I./3” and Panzer IVs were sent to “2.Pz.Div.”, since some Panzer IVs were used to equip regiment HQ while most of the Panzer IVs were used to equip II./Pz.Rgt.3.

  • BATTLE-SCARRED and DIRTY: US ARMY TACTICAL LEADERSHIP in the MEDITERRANEAN THEATER, 1942-1943 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial
    BATTLE-SCARRED AND DIRTY: US ARMY TACTICAL LEADERSHIP IN THE MEDITERRANEAN THEATER, 1942-1943 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Steven Thomas Barry Graduate Program in History The Ohio State University 2011 Dissertation Committee: Dr. Allan R. Millett, Adviser Dr. John F. Guilmartin Dr. John L. Brooke Copyright by Steven T. Barry 2011 Abstract Throughout the North African and Sicilian campaigns of World War II, the battalion leadership exercised by United States regular army officers provided the essential component that contributed to battlefield success and combat effectiveness despite deficiencies in equipment, organization, mobilization, and inadequate operational leadership. Essentially, without the regular army battalion leaders, US units could not have functioned tactically early in the war. For both Operations TORCH and HUSKY, the US Army did not possess the leadership or staffs at the corps level to consistently coordinate combined arms maneuver with air and sea power. The battalion leadership brought discipline, maturity, experience, and the ability to translate common operational guidance into tactical reality. Many US officers shared the same ―Old Army‖ skill sets in their early career. Across the Army in the 1930s, these officers developed familiarity with the systems and doctrine that would prove crucial in the combined arms operations of the Second World War. The battalion tactical leadership overcame lackluster operational and strategic guidance and other significant handicaps to execute the first Mediterranean Theater of Operations campaigns. Three sets of factors shaped this pivotal group of men. First, all of these officers were shaped by pre-war experiences.

  • Jagdpanzer 38 Hetzer Early
    JAGDPANZER38 3711 HETZER EARLY eduard 1:35 FIRST, A FEW WORDS... ...ON THE WAR: The Second World War, from a German perspective, was not evolving favorably in 1943. Heavy losses at Stalingrad, the capitulation of German and Italian forces in North Africa in May, the defeat at the Battle of Kursk in July, and the Allied landings in Italy put increasing stresses on the German military. Furthermore, an increasingly concentrated fury from above in the form of the allied bombing campaign appeared that threatened to reduce the Reich to rubble. This campaign began to extract a heavy toll on the German ability to produce and support her weapons, including the production of tanks. On the other hand, war production in the Soviet Union and the United States steadily increased, and production figures attained were in the thousands. The German planners and designers were faced with some difficult decisions with respect on how to address the situation. One The original Pz.38(t) light tank effective method was to construct a series of tank hunter/destroyers on the chassis of existing tanks, foto V.Francev via MBI resulting in vehicles such as the Sturmgeschütz, for use in infantry support. One huge advantage of such vehicles was their relative simplicity when compared to the classic tank. There was no turret, and the complexities associated with the manufacture and installation of the turret were eliminated. The vehicles would be armed with Pak 39 anti tank guns of 75mm caliber, and were called Jagdpanzer (Fighter Tank - Tank Destroyer). Progressively, this concept was applied to other tank chassis as well.

  • GURPS WWII Classic
    World War II raged from the deserts of North Africa to the jungles of the South Pacific, from the mountaintops of the Alps to the beaches of Normandy, across (and under) the high seas, and through the skies above it all. Soldiers in all of these places relied upon the machines of war: bombers, fighters, tanks, jeeps, ships, submarines, landing craft, and much more. GURPS WWII: Motor Pool has a huge variety of historically accurate vehicles from mankind’s greatest conflict. Many of the vehicles were common; others were rare or even unique. From the stodgy General Lee tank to the earliest helicopters and the wildly impractical Maus, Motor Pool has tons of new gear for every GURPS WWII player. Motor Pool also gathers in one place all the refinements to the vehicle design system that have evolved since the original corebook came out, as well as a new system to describe any WWII-era conveyance in a few simple steps. These additions include scores of new weapons to be fitted on your war machines – some historical and some products of the imagination. On top of all that, Motor Pool has advice on S how to integrate vehicles into a roleplaying T E campaign, with details on how vehicle crews V really lived and fought, from the difficulties of E supply to getting their machine moving at all.
