Panzer Lehr - Fire and Fury

This OOB is based on an OOB from the Fire and Fury website. This is credited toThomas Riepe. I have amended it with data from the sources listed.

Notes from Thomas Riepe. Battlegroups and Maneuver elements with the suffix "PL" are variants of the standard Battlefront organizations specific to Panzer Lehr. Where standard organizations are used, do not include divisional attachements, as the available troops of Panzer Lehr are shown here.
