RE: Atheory's Project: Operation Fischreiher (Stalingrad42)
Stalingrad Front had separate tank battalions that had 'special' TOE.
Shtat #010/399:
21x T-34 and 21x T-60, 197 men total
HQ
T-34 Co (x2)
T-60 Co (x2)
Perhaps 10 tanks in each company and rest in HQ
There is other case. Combats for 62nd Army started not 23 July but earlier. All 5 Riffle divisions that was in first line was ordered to form vanguard groups and take positions much more to west. Firstly it was battallion size groups in some cases divided to companies and later these groups was reinforced to regiment size. Also each group was reinforced by tank battalions.
So, on 23 July each regiment of these divisions should have losses and fatigue. As well as their tank battalions.
