Hi,
The 3. Batterie - Hstuf. Hugo Ullerich was raised in the spring and equiped with 8.8 cm guns and joined the Bataillon in mid 42.
Both 4. 5. Batteries are fitted with 3.7 self propelled flak guns.
A 6. Batterie one was supposed to be raised and equipped with 2 cm Flakvierling but the project was abandonned before the end of 42.
I m looking for a Gliederung.
I ve got one from 3 dec 42 one from the 30. June 43 in C Trang Books.

Mr. Hunter,

I was wondering if you can provide me the TO&E for KStN 1705 & 1709.
I tried looking over the website and others but no success.
I appreciate if you can help me.

Thanks for your time,
Apollo ER

I don't have access to those particular KStN, but maybe someone else on the site does.
