Всъщност бях разменил последните две цифри: Sondercomando 287. Те тук се крие ключа от вратата:
И по-точно в тази част:
The Intelligence Section for Arab Affairs was duly activated in July 1943 in Belgrade, where the Semlin radio station was placed at its disposal. The Germans had been able to decipher the British directive on Arab propaganda which Radio Cairo was using, and now this directive came in very handy. When the section had to move from Belgrade to Zwettel, north-west of Vienna, late in the summer of 1944, the broadcasts to Arab countries were continued by the Berlin broadcasting station, where the technical facilities were better .than in Vienna. There is no information available on the effects of these broadcasts, but Allied broadcasts—if any of them even reached Arab soldiers in the German Army—-seemed to make very little impression.
After it had completed basic training at Doellersheim early in November 1943, the 845th German-Arab Battalion was assigned to Army Group E in the Aegean area. It was given responsibility for railroad protection north of Salonika. Soon afterward Generalkommando LXVIII meanwhile redesignated Generalkommando LXVIII A.K. (Headquarters, LXVIII Corps), requested that the battalion be placed under its direct jurisdiction. This request was approved by Army Group E, with the consequence that in the spring of 1944 the companies of the battalion were transferred to the area south of lamia, and battalion headquarters was established at Anfiklia. In the warfare against Greek partisans which took place in this area, the 845th German--Arab Battalion proved its worth. It was a form of combat which seemed to suit the Arab mentality.
When the German Army evacuated southern Greece in October 1944, and retreated northward through the Balkans, the 845th German-Arab Battalion usually furnished the rear guard. Remarkably enough the Moslem troops soon became accustomed to
severe cold and even though they suffered high losses they remained effective. The German forces retreated from Greece into Yugoslavia, frequently delayed by air raids and partisans. Throughout the withdrawal the Arabs gave a good account of themselves. Toward the end of November, the 1st Company, 845th German-Arab Battalion, attacked Hill 734 at Uzice four times in succession despite the bitter cold and the deep snow. A fifth attack was successful.
In February 1945, after an interval for rest and rehabilitation, the Arab battalion was employed between the Danube and Sava Rivers. In April it participated in the retreat which brought General Hauser’s fortress divisions to positions west of Zagreb, in Croatia. Here the battalion was captured. As far as can be ascertained the Arabs were concentrated in special prisoner of war camps and released after about one year of captivity.Редактирано от kutria на 06.02.14 14:05.
