Info regarding Res.Pz.Werkstatt.Kp. 1055

[Beattie-B]

I'm currently researching a soldbuch with the stamp "Res.Pz.Werkstatt.Kp. 1055" but have only turned up it's feldpostnummer and the following link to a mechanic posted here.

The interesting part is that the man i'm researching was a stretcher bearer, and ended up in San.Kp. 2/60 which there is a wealth of information about but nothing on the 1055. It appears the 1055 feldpost did not exist after June 6th of 44 but was active as of March of 44.

Hello Beattie-B !

Reserve-Pz.Werkstatt-Kp. 1055 was likely part of 155. Res.Pz.Div. :

155. Res.Pz.Div. (part the replacement army) was used in March, 1944 for the refresh of 9.Pz.Div.,
which would explain the connection to the No. 60 of the San.Kp. resp. of the unit in the other thread.

Thanks again Archi,

I had a hunch that the unit may have had something to do with Res.Pz.Div 155 but didn't want to jump the gun especially with no supporting evidence other than the 9th Pz. Div. connection.

Warmest Regards,
Brett
