Ralph -
There is a Russian publication by Frontline Illustration, titled something
like Wehrmacht Panzer Units 1945 (in Russian w/ Cyrillic alphabet). I got it
through Air Connection, #FTL 07. It has one photo of an Ausf. G identified as
Feldherrnhalle Panzergrenadier Div. (pg. 63), no markings visible, another of
13th PD (pg. 64) that carried no turret number but did have an interesting
camouflage, and one unit not mentioned that had the turret designation AJ9
(this photo I have seen somewhere else but can't remember where). All are
listed as knocked out in Budapest, January 1945.
This book has lots of late war eastern front photos and is well worth looking
for if that is your main interest.
Best of luck with your search,
