John , is the unit Pi Btl 3 or named after it's Commander Von Ranch in which case it could be a Kampfgruppe formed around the Pi Btl ??
Any other info you have about the unit will assist in any possible ID so tell us as much as you can,
cheers

Thought shall be the harder , heart the keener,
Courage the greater as our strength faileth.
Here lies our leader ,in the dust of his greatness.
Who leaves him now , be damned forever.
We who are old now shall not leave this Battle,
But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader
