13th company was the Infanterie-Geschütz so the belt would have served with the PAK's correct?

Yes and no Matt- the 13. Kompanie was indeed the Infanterie-Geschütz Kompanie, but they had 6 leichte Infanterie-Geschütz (like the 7,5cm lIG 18) and 2 schwere Infanterie-Geschütz (like the 15cm sIG 33). It was the 14. Panzerjäger Kompanie that operated the Paks.

Infanterie-Regiment 101 was initially part of the 14. Infanterie-Division- you can see where they fought here: http://www.lexikon-der-wehrmacht.de/...ionen/14ID.htm . on 15.10.1940 they were reorganized to become Schützen-Regiment 101 of the 18. Panzer-Division. When that was disbanded on 29.9.1943, they once again became Grenadier-Regiment 101 in the 14. Infanterie-Division.

Hi Matt,

Sure thing- happy to help. I'd think the only books you might be able to rely on would be Divisional histories of the 14. Infanterie-Division and the 18. Panzer-Division- unfortunately, I'd think both wouldn't be particularly easy to find and are likely in German. I'd also think that the most you'd find about the Infanterie-Geschütz Kompanie would be a mention here and there.
