Re: Michael Wittmann
brin i hope i can help you LAH was equiped with all three panzer 3 models the j l and m has you have quite exceptionally pointed out . the later versions of the pz 3 would have been placed into combat positions replacing damaged or commandered vehicles. so retrospectively the vehicles that would have been replaced first would have been command vehicles with newer up to date versions. the vehicles leftover would have been filtered down to the crews that needed a new vehicle or replacement vehicle. so on this instance i would hypothetically being going for a pz3 ausf m as being wittmanns vehicle i am still trying to find the evidence you seek and as soon as i know or come up with something i will post it for you.
as for the turret numbers the photos i have seen show what could be white outlines with no centres. i am not completely sure however and was leaning towards a yellow as being possibly used so when i get further confirmation i will again post and let you know sorry mate.
as for the last question in regards to the tank numbers you have given that were attatched to the 4th heavy tank battalion the tank numbers #555, #558 belonged to abteilung stab, the tank number #061 belonged to aufklaerung zug the last tank mubers i cant help with sorry looks like even more research
