Does anyone no where to find Heersdienstvorschrift.300 Truppenfeuhrung in the original German? I just bought the English version by Condell and Zabecki, but was unimpressed by the their translation, and by their removal of the annexes.
On a similar note, does anyone know where to find other German Army instruction manuals relating to command and control functions or tactical/operational training?

I also have the English version by Condell and Zabecki, and I too am unipressed. Especially after comparing it with the original German. I have only seen it at the Bundesarchiv-Militärarchiv, which perhaps is less of help to you. If you have access to NARA records, I can give you some roll numbers to check.

I managed to pick up a 1941 instruction work on fighting a reinforced infantry battalion (written by two Oberste) on Ebay.de for €6 (incl. P&P), so this maybe a good place to monitor.

I know this thread is 4 years old, but.... I don't understand the disappointment with the translation, they did it in exactly the same format as the original. There are no annexes left out either. If you want an original go to www.abebooks.com and search under "Truppenfuhrung" or "H.Dv."
