Help with Soldbuch GD unit entry

[JBGracing]

Guys,

Can someone ID this late war GD unit for me please?

Looks like Pz ??? Rgt GD.

Thanks,
Jared

Is that a late war entry? From memory in the last weeks or months of the war GD set up a Pz.Muskitier unit. I have it in one of my databases but I'm at work at the moment so can't confirm the time frame (or spelling for that matter!)

Thanks Hucks. It is a late war entry and I believe you are correct Pz Musk Rgt GD. Any info you have on the unit would be greatly appreciated.

The only snippet I have in my database is that it was formed late war (April 1945 ?) and commanded by Major (might of been an Oberstleutnant) Hans-Dieter Karl von Basse (KIA 16th April 1945 in Godnicken).
It was formerly known as Pz.Korps-Füs.Rgt GD. I would imagine there would be some more information in Vol 3 of Spaeter's GD history.
