Apolpgies if I have things wrong - this is the first time I've posted to a forum:
I am researching the WWII military career of my Nieces Husbands Grandfather but am unfamiliar with the structure of the wehrmacht. I have found his unit was the 9./Gren.Rgt.47.MOT. but am having trouble understanding/interpreting this. I have recently contacted WAsT requesting his service history (still awaiting a response), but meanwhile would like to find out about where his unit served etc.
Could anyone offer advice or tips on interpreting the unit designation and finding information on its role?
Many thanks
Derrick
