Here's a picture of the flag. I can't find a date or signature on it, though I'd say it's an older one - if not wartime, then early postwar. I finally did find the 10th Motorized Rifle Regiment. They were disbanded in September 1941, and their assets were used to build the 133rd Tank Brigade. Unfortunately, the unit was redesignated as another... So the question continues...

Gerd-

I don't have my references handy, but it looks like you should start investing in the Soviet orders of battle.

Here's a link on George Nafziger's website to the books by Charles Sharp:

Maybe the ID painting on the tank is some general symbol or something???

Here is a better picture:

Tactical Symbol

Hi Jussi-Pekka,

in German it is the tactical sign for reconnaissance. But I think, it is no tactical symbol.

regards
Andreas

Another symbol on a tank turret.

Andreas,

Yes, hard to say, can be or not.

Any other comments, please?

Just an update. I bought a few books of the Charles Sharp series and they are an exellent source to research Units in the Soviet Army. I haven´t seen anything better yet.

Thanks again for the advice, Dave :thumbsup

Gerd
