    Pz Art. Rgt 13, 13. Panzerdivision

    Good day fellow collectors

    I am looking for the names of three Regiment commanders of Pz Art Rgt 13, 13. Panzerdivision. The timeframe is as followed:

    3rd August 1942 the Rgt. commander was an Oberstleutnant

    7th November 1942 the Rgt. commander was Oberst

    16th May 1943 the Rgt commander was an Oberst (could be D.Ernst but not sure)

    Any help is welcome and much appreciated. Many thanks in advance.

    Greeting from Switzerland

    Hi Jürg,

    Here is the info you require:

    During the times you specified it should be Oberstleutnant/Oberst Dr Ernst Kühn, he was in command from 27.2.1942 until 1.10.1943...during this time 1.10.42-1.11.42 Major Ratzel had temporary command.

    Hope this helps.

      Hi Jürg,

      After reading one of my other books the above info is incorrect....

      Oberstleutnant/Oberst Dr. Kühn took over command 27.2.1942 until 1.10.42-1.11.42 when Major Ratzel had temporary command. Then it was Oberst Dr. Ernst.

      Whether or not Dr. Kühn's first name was Ernst I do not know but he was a DKiG holder (will check this book out later).

        Hello, per Hoffmann <i>Die Magdeburger Division</i> <b>Dr. K&uuml;hn</b> and <b>Dr. Ernst</b> are apparently different person (by the way the book has pretty detailed names regarding Pz.Art.Rgt.13). I have to say that Wegmann/Zweng has a typo there.

          Hi Akira,

          Jürg has got copies of these now as the initial list was taken from Wegmann/Zweng but as we know there is a mistake.....Die Magdeburger Division does well on the Artillerie side of things!! Der Schicksalsweg der 13 Pz.Div. only really lists DK and RKT ....

            Helli Ian, hello Akira

            Thanks a lot for your kind help. I could now identify all commanders who signed the award docs of my group.
