Project '44 interactive mapping
This looks like it could be really useful, following the day-by-day location of ground units and a lot more.

Re: Project '44 interactive mapping
Thanks for the link, it is interesting (and by the way, while the map opens centered on Normandy on D-day, it also covers Sicily and Italy starting on 9 July 1943).
This website also gives access to a lot of war diaries up to batallion level, especially for Canadian units. For German only three Tiger batallions seem to have a war diary for now. A curiosity: in the unit list there is the 38th Japanese division.... I wonder where she is on the map... |
Re: Project '44 interactive mapping
I replied this morning but it seems my post has disappeared.
So I repeat it: thanks a lot Nick for this very useful link. Contrary to what the name implies, it show unit position on the western and italian fronts from 10 July 1943 to the end of the war. It gives also accesses to war diaries of some units (most of them Canadian). Strange thing: in the unit list there is the Japanese 38th Division. If this one fought in Europe, I have missed it in my readings so far... |
