Feldgendarmerie Units Help

[Ian Thomson]

I`ve trying to find some information on these Feldgendarmerie units but have had no luck on the internet apart from a mention that 564 was linked with the 325th Security Division from February 1944, but no mention of either 564 or 932 on Tessin or Nazfiger with that unit. He was killed in France in 1943 and the 325th was Paris`s garrison unit. Any help would be much appreciated.

Cheers
Ian

Ian,

I am outside in the garden having a beer at the moment and unable to check my references, however try looking under Orts or Kreiskommandter as these units have Feldgendarmerie units...and if I am not mistaken the Truppe have the same number as the Kdtr!

I will take a look at Tessin later when I get inside...

Come on Ian, I cant believe you have your beer in the garden and not your copies of Tessin, bet your even sitting on a deck chair!!!! I`m taken aback

[Ian Jewison]

No deckchairs.....I only got my laptop to see what time the F1 was on tonight seeing as Button won at last!

If they were attached to these units then.....
