Re: obat36 East Germany
On the other hand my copy of "UNsere Armee für Frieden und Sozialismus-25Jahre Nationale Volksarmee"
Does state on Page 377: "Such upgrades included improved versions of the vernable T-55 and the modern Soviet T-62 tank."
This passage refers to upgrades in the late 1970s, and this in connection to the claim of my Grandfather, Lieutenant Colonel Willi Müller, leads me to believe that there were indeed T-62 in the NVA.
UNfortunately neither he nor this or any other book I own does state numbers for that claim, but if we agree on 24 BMP2 I think we must include T-62s as well-
