This pamphlet was prepared for the Historical Division EUCOM, by a group of former German generals and general staff officers. All of the contributing authors saw considerable service on the Esatern Front during World War II. The principal author, Brig. Gen. Herman Burkhart Wueller-Hillebrand, served as aide to the Chief of the Army General Staff before assuming command of an armoured regiment on the Russian front.

Successively appointed chief of staff of a panzer corps and a panzer army, he saw action in Ukraine, Poland, and East Prussia. One of the associate authors, Brig. Gen. Oskar Munzel, commanded a tank battalion and an armoured regiment during the early phase of the Russian campaign. In 1943 General Munzel was assigned as an instructor at the German armored school at Wuensdorf, and subsequently became commandant of the one at Bergen-Fallingsbostel. Returning to the Russian front towards the end of the war, he led a panzer brigade and served as deputy commander of a panzer division.

All the publications in the German Report Series were written from the German point of view, and the procedures of the German Army normally differed widely from those of the U. S. Army. In the case of “German Armored Traffic Control During the Russian Campaign”, however, it is interesting to note the similarity of German principles and doctrines to the American forces.

This pamphlet describes the World War II armoured traffic control principles employed by the German Army during their combat operations in Russia.
