Just add this little bit about one of the Regiments of the Division in Budapest.

Quote:
Soviet anti-tank units destroyed two German tanks and anti-tank guns in Kiralyhago Square and occupied the buildings south , north and west.
In the evening the 16th SS Cavalry Regiment gave up its base at the corner of Nemetvolgyi Road and Farkasret Cemetery.......with Seshegy Hill essentially encircled , the annihilation of the German unit trapped in Farkasret cemetery and the storm on Kis-Gellert Hill and Deli Station began.
Quote:
On 6 Feburary fighting was fiercest near Deli Station and in Hegyalja Road, where Soviet combat units included officers equipped with flame throwers .....A counter attack launched by 8th SS Cavalry Division from the southeast and northwest towards Sashegy Hill was checked by strong Soviet opposition
