I need a good reference source for Panther's. I have the Squadron book already I'm looking for something with unit histories, orders of battle, like Scneider's Tigers in Combat series.

Yo, why dont you try www.achtungpanzer.bos.com or www.battlefield.ru :-)

I just tryed those websites. The first doesn't exist and the second doesn't work properly.

Try here:
http://www.wargamer.com/Hosted/Panzer/panther.htm
The top of page three has a bit about a couple of the units that used the Panther. Lots of other useful info as well.

I'm not really sure about a reference for unit histories and the like, but if you are looking for the definitive book on the production/development history of the Panther, then you must start with Jentz's Germany's Panther Tank: The Quest for Combat Supremacy.

The nearest Panther book to TIC, that i know of would be "Panther" by Waldemar Trojca. But this boiok does not have any unit histories in, just lots of pictures and technical stuff, the same goes for Spielberger's "Panther and it's Varients" and the aformentioned Jentz book. Not sure there is one book that covers the unit histories of the Panther...is there something specific that you are looking for?
