Re: what is "1/10th SS Frundsberg"?
1/10th SS Frundsberg
Frundsberg was the name given to the 10th SS Division and 1/ indicates the first Panzergrenadier Regiment of that division. The scenario itself concerns itself with ( I belive...) the second Rifle Company of the first battalion of the first Regiment of the 10th SS division
Frundsberg had , along with all the support battalions, 2 Panzergrenadier Regiments and 1 Panzer Regiment. Each of the Panzergrenadier Regiments had three battalions and each battalion had four Companys In this case the first Regiment's actual designation was SS Panzergrenadier Regiment 21.
"In October, 1943, this division was given the number 10 and bestowed with the offical title of Frundsberg, while the 1st and 2nd SS-Panzergrenadier-Regiments were renumber as the 21st and 22nd Panzergrenadier-Regiments. "
