Hello

Does anyone have information of the action the Nebelwerfer Regiment 53 was in in 1941?
To be more specific in June and July 1941.
All information is more than welcome.

Thank you very much.

I own a two-volume history of the regiment, 698 pages in all. General path of the unit in June-July 1941 was Koden am Bug, south of Brest-Litovsk, Minsk, Rogachev, Krichev, Smolensk, Yelnya, so basically, along the main highway toward Moscow. However, the battalions were split up amongst various combat groups, so for example, at the end of June 1941, I./53 was near Bobruisk on the Berezina while II. and III./53 were near Minsk.

Thank you very much Ian and Jason for your help. Much appreciated.
The soldier i'm researching was at that time an Unteroffizier in the 9. Batterie so he had to be near Minsk.
