		German organizations have consistently shown a trend toward conversion of infantry divisions into motorized infantry divisions (Panzer Grenadier Divisions) which in turn have been converted into armored divisions (Panzer Divisions).
		It is apparent that the German panzer grenadier division is extremely mobile and flexible.
		New reports indicate a trend within the organization of the panzer grenadier battalion of the panzer grenadier division toward that of the panzer grenadier battalion of the panzer division.

	Germans; the old enemy
		The 21st Panzer was still in France when the Allies launched their invasion of Normandy in June of 1944, and the division was thrown into action against the Allied positions as the only Panzer unit to do so on the 1st day of the attack, June 6th.

	Feldgrau :: 13.Panzer-Division
		The bulk of the division was stretched out in one long column many miles long behind the isolated combat teams of the Panzergrenadiere waiting to be reinforced so that the assault on the city could be pursued in strength.
		Even though it had not been able to achieve its assigned strategic objective, the men of the division got some satisfaction from the fact that their organization was recognized as one of the toughest Panzer divisions in the East, a division that had in fact reached the most southeasterly point along the entire Eastern Front.
		When the German counterattack, spearheaded by the 1.SS-Panzer.Division "Leibstandarte Adolf Hitler" and other SS-Panzer.Divisions, failed to lift the siege of Budapest in March, 1945, the division was finally crushed and it was every person for themselves to break out of the Kessel.

	Saving Private Ryan: 2nd SS Panzer Division
		Originally formed on October 19, 1939 as the "Verfugungs" Division, this unit was redesignated as the 2nd SS Panzer Division ("Das Reich") in late 1943.
		The division should have taken approximately three days to reach northern France by rail, but the efforts of French resistance fighters, as well as Allied air superiority, made the move much slower, as the Germans were forced to move overland by road.
		In reality the 2nd SS Panzer Division did not arrive in strength in the Normandy area until around June 23rd, thus making it highly unlikely that any of its tanks would be near Ramelle on the 13th of June.
