2 Division Sub Units – Panzer and Panzer Grenadier Divisions
Sturmpanzer.com
This document identifies the actual organic units subordinated to panzer and panzer grenadier
divisions. While the original document does not indicate the effective date of this data, it seems
representative of around 1944. The numbers in the chart identify the unit number. As an example,
the first panzer grenadier division listed is the 3.PGD. Its two grenadier regiments are the 8th and the
29th. The reconnaissance battalion is the 103rd; the panzer battalion is also the 103rd and so on. In the
panzer division listing, the underlined grenadier regiment numbers indicate that they had an armored
battalion. On the panzer regiment column after the regiment number, there is a row for each of the
battalions which indicate the type of vehicle each of the battalions were assigned: the IV representing
the Pz.Kpfw.IV and the V being the Panther. While the first battalion in a 1944 panzer division
typically fielded the Panther you will note that there are two divisions that have the Pz.IV and the
Panther battalions reversed.
