Let p be an odd prime number, r a natural number, and Formula the generalized quaternion group of order 4pr. Let k be a number field and Cl(k) its class group. Let Formula be the subset of Cl(k) consisting of those classes which are realizable as Steinitz classes of tame Galois extensions of k with Galois group isomorphic to Formula. In this article, we determine Formula and show that it is a subgroup of Cl(k). In particular, Formula is the full group Cl(k) if p does not divide the class number of k, or if either k contains a primitive prth root of unity or p is unramified in k.
