Very interesting thread you've got here Kai [img]smile.gif[/img] !
Just some additional information:
After Op. Zitadelle II.SS-Pz.Korps was sent south, to Mius, along with the 3rd (Heer) Pz.Div., this division was then attached to the Corps while the 1st SS left for Italy (N Italy/Slovenia/Croatia). 2nd and 3rd SS Pz.Gren.Divs suffered horrible losses (especially panzers) in three day fighting and just barely managed to destroy the Russian bridgehead. Afterwards the II.SS.Pz.Korps (only Corps stab that is) was also sent to Italy while the two divisions back to Charkow, where they managed to stop two Russian Tank Armies (for a while).
Maybe someone could post all Op.Zitadelle RKT
to start just some SS RKTs: two big boys - Wisliceny and Webber, the RK driver - Thaler, the Slovene RKT - Grascher, the adjutant of the Devil's adjutant - Wolff, foreign secretary's son - v.Ribbentrop and so on.
