PzGren Units

[chris h]

In the German OOB you have PzGren unit available from 1939. Why is this when the earlist KstN lisitng I can find for PzGren Co is a provisional date Apr 43, the earliest official date being Nov 43. Prior to that they where called Schutzen (mot or gp) Co.

There were some PzGren Bn in existance mid 42 but they still used the Schutzen KstN. Just to confuse the issue, when assigned to PzG Bn these Sch Co were unofficially often referred to as PzGren Co.
