DOM Division

[münster]

Hello,


Iam trying to research my grandfather he was MIA in about 44. Does anyone know about the Döm Division out of Köln? From fotos I have it looks like a motorized division and some of the fotos have Riga the city written on back.My other grandfather was in a panzerjaeger unit out of kharkov and kursk, but that seems a little to vague for any info i guess.

Thanks,
Dion

Thanks Tommy,, I wish I could post some of the fotos but I dont know how. I got a bunch, one with them taking in a bunch of russian prisoners. I just know it was dom division and that they wer e all out of köln.The later ones they are wearing the splinter camoflauge jackets. I see no insignias.

Thanks for looking
