Hello all, I am considering doing a dio around a panzer rgt. But I am having a devil of a time finding the TO&E. I am looking at the 116 panzer regiment (greyhounds). I'm trying to figure out what vehicles would be found in the regiment, like what half tracks, tanks, light vehicles and the like. I have tried searching online but all the results that have been coming up are centered around a variety of games. I would like to build with historical accuracy in mind. If anyone has any helpful info I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks.

So as I understand from that link, and some others it led me to, it is safe to say that the panzergrenadier units would have been equipped with sdkfz's to get around? And would they have also used them to tow the artillery pieces?

Panzergrenadier unit I would say yes, as for the artillery, not sure.

This guy does really good videos about TO&E;
