Need info on part of Nordland - Artillery

Post by Jebir »

Hello there

In my search for a volunteer I have ended up with "11. a.a. artillery battallion", and I know that he was part of Nordland.
So I was wondering if anyone has any info on SS-Panzer Artillerie Regiment 11 which was part of Nordland, or know where I can find any?
I am looking for anything - but most of all a way to confirm that the guy I'm tracing was actually in this unit...

Thanks in advance!

It's not so much the volunteer I'm looking for info about, but more the unit at the moment, like rosters etc. But I have sent you a pm.

"a.a. artillerie battalion" is not SS-Artillerie Regiment 11. It is SS-Flak Abteilung 11, as in anti-aircraft artillery battalion. What do you hope to learn about this formation?

Hi Mark

Thank you for clearifying.

I hope to learn.... just about anything. I have no info, but ideally would be some pictures from the unit, or some lists that would confirm that the person I am looking for was actually in the unit. I have been looking for over a year, and only have bits and pieces that won't really fit together, so I'm trying to make a sort of timeline.

So any info would be welcome - also websites with their "route through the war" etc. :-)

Regards,
Jebir

To my knowledge there is not much written about Flak.Abt 11, one german book by Stoerber about the Flugabwehrverbander der Waffen SS has a chapter of the Flak Abt 11 Nordland. The books by Tieke has only fragmental information about the unit. Search amazon.de or ebay.de for this book.
