German reports of strength and equipment holdings

[wwilson]

I have an interest in strength reports and equipment inventories in German formations.

I expect there are many reports of this nature in the NARA archives. My question is, are these collected in a particular set of records, or are they bits that have to be dug out of the records concerning particular divisions etc. ?

Thanks for any pointers.

It's in each organization's files. Total figures at OKH, unit figures at unit records. Getting both is interesting: you can spot what gets distorted as reports move up the chain of command.

Thank you, Mori.

There is also the extended series of Gliederungen by month for the Panzertruppen in T-81 IIRC, Rolls 621 and 623?
