Default German OOB16

I have been doing some research into German TOE and noticed the following

1. SS Motorized infantry formations 342-346. The squads are to large to fit into the Krupp Truck transport option. It only has a carry capapcity of 12 while many of the squads have 13 men.

2. Formation 180 SS mot Pak - The SS had access to 37mm anti-tank weapons from the start of the war. Same goes for the SS mot infantry gun gruppe (forgot to write down formation no. sorry).

3. As a genreal info question what's the difference between a normal German engineer unit and a SturmPionerr?(Assult Pioneer?)

Soruces: Waffen SS and other units in World War II by George F. Nafziger ISBN: 1-58097-058-3. This book is a gold mine of TOE data.
