Re: Panzer Lehr Pz.IV Track Links
I can be thankful that my missus isn't interested in militaria and won't read anything on here... she's a blond and you can guess where from.
Ye gods. Thinning down the search to just a few Panzers and maybe just one!?! What a result that'd be. Fantastic!

Re: Panzer Lehr Pz.IV Track Links
Steve as this Panzer IV find was in the area between Tilly and Hottot it is almost certainly from the II Abt Panzer Lehr Regiment , probably from the 6th or 8th Kompanie , they were fighting around Tilly and Lingevres and this area was initially a lying up point prior ro or after any action.
If i can pin it down further i'll let you know

Re: Panzer Lehr Pz.IV Track Links
Hi Paul,
Thanks for that!! I was guessing it would be Abt. II as the first Bn would have had Panthers I think. We didn't find any more Pz.IV related items in that field, on a field opposite was a large panel of schurzen though.
Last week we went back to that area but slightly more the West, we dug up 4 British Helmets, German bayonet and severl other items, I'll post pictures on here soon.
All the best,
Steve
Re: Panzer Lehr Pz.IV Track Links
Yes the I Abt were Panthers , they were actually I Abt Panzer Regt 6 which was seconded to the Panzer Lehr
