| (*) The strength reports of 15. Panzer-Division and the 5. leichte Division (mot) indicate ready gun tanks on 20.06.1941.
(**) Not counting the 15. Panzer-Division or the 5. leichte Division (mot) The 2. and 5. Panzer-Division had just returned from the Balkans and were pretty well used up - apparently most of the tanks were returned to the factories for overhaul. |
