From what I can gather, Propagandakompanie 670 was assigned directly at Armeekorps level, the you'd need the relevant tactical symbol for them - I have references to it being with Armeekorps XXV 19 mid to late 1941 and possibly early 1942. I don't have the correct symbol to hand at the moment though.

Found this Mark

Also leached this from the GErman SPeaking Lexicon Der Wehmracht
Im L.d.W. (Seite habe ich Ausgedruckt und richtig! Abgelegt) gibt es eine Auflistung der Kompanien.
Für den Kriegsbeginn:
Propagandakompanie 501 bei 3. Armee, Raum Warschau
Propagandakompanie 612 bei 1 Armee Westwall
Propagandakompanie 621 bei 14 Armee Raum Jabloka-Pass, Krakau
Propagandakompanie 637 bei 10 Armee Raum Radom
Propagandakompanie 649 bei 8 Armee Raum Warschau-Radom
Propagandakompanie 666 bei 5 Armee Westwall
Propagandakompanie 670 bei 7 Armee Westwall
Propagandakompanie 689 bei 4 Armee Korridor, Warschau

Dies sind 8 Kompanien, Müller-Hillebrand spricht von 7 was stimmt jetzt wieder nicht.

This is for 1939 though.

Looks like they had left by Juni 42 to be replaced by PK549

This references Feldjagers information.....

Now to find where they went and what their symbol was...

If we can't find 670 insignia how about PK 649?

I'm searching hard both through books and on the net - I am thinking that the PK wagen would carry the tactical symbol as per the Signals Unit it was classed as - A wheeled box containing the word "Prop" and an upward pointing arrow emerging from the top. I have seen but can't find a photo of a vehicle with the "Prop" replaced by "PK" but until we can evidence it, hang fire.
That would sit on one bumper/mudguard and then possibly the Divisional or Army mark to which it was attached on the other?

Need some work but I bet this will be the case........

found this as I was typing and still searching

Feldjager has given me this link in the past:

If you're a sad person like me and go through every one you can pick out the unit signs for certain PK units but not the ones that I want. Typical.

On the same site are the signals signs:

Mark - friend..... I'd worked it out before you decided you even wanted to do it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :lol:

Nah - go for it...... I will continue to snootle around. The Tactical mark is the wheeled box What you are looking for is a Divisional/Korps mark....... Let's see what we can turn up... I think you have a brilliant (as usual) idea. and will (as usual) cary it off perfectly.
