From my latest long form Youtube video on a wartime document during the Battle of Normandy: Despite its advanced appearance, German self-propelled artillery like the 150mm Hummel & 105mm Wespe were not highly rated by artillerymen or Panzer division commanders like General Balck. While commanders appreciated that they provided the ability to quickly launch break-through fires behind attacking armor & infantry the logistics & impact of the fire was limited- battalion could only carry around 1,500-800 shells. In comparison, their enemies were dropping that quantity on a single divisional front on an ordinary 'quiet' day. Like the Panzerhaubitze 2000 in Ukraine, in wartime documents the Germans complain about the mechanical problems that these self-propelled battalions caused, which added another layer of complexity. The chasis that propelled their SP artillery was over-loaded. The chief Panzer division tactician of the second half of WW2, General der Panzertruppe Balck (Chief of Mobile Forces OKH, Trained the advanced Großdeutschland division, CO of 11.Pz & 48th Pz Korps) reported during the war & afterwards to the US Army that he actually preferred ordinary towed artillery. The advantages of SP artillery to him in operations was not worth the cost. Check it out!! #tank #WW2 #tanks #WWII youtube.com/shorts/YDBdOM2…

From my latest Youtube video: RANKING 10 Waffen SS & German PANZER Divisions in Normandy 1944: RARE COMBAT Footage in Color: General Schweppenburg, Chief of Panzer Group West, makes a surprising report on the training and fighting condition of the 1st SS Panzer Division 'Leibstandarte'- the Praetorian Guard of the regime. He writes: "Discipline was a sham, NCOs were poor. The division did not have time for thorough training before the invasion". After its rebuilding in Italy after the Battle of Kursk, the 1st SS Panzer came back to fight in armored battles in the Ukraine, including counterattacks to re-take Kiev, maneuver defense against the Soviet Zhitomir-Berdichev offense, and a central role in armored counterstrikes Operation Vatutin and Operation Wanda in the Battle of the Korsun-Cherkassy Pocket. After this extreme exertion, it was reduced to a shattered skeleton and refilled with conscripts in time shortly before the Normandy campaign.
