Great stuff as usual, Erich!

The reference I noted was just a passing one in a photo caption- so as you suggest, I wouldn't take it as being garaunteed accurate. Sounds more like an approximate figure to me- "somewhere around 850 AFVs lost in the approximate Berlin area" would probably be more accurate.

I'm thinking, other than general reading, that I'll make this my next little project, see if I can pull any info out of the sources I have/find some new sources.

And my German is non-existant! English translation of the Tieke source, I wonder?

Man, I need a beer- and a book shopping trip as soon as I get time!
