April 20, 1945 Ground attack Mission by JG26

Guys:

A question: on April 20, 1945 elements of II/JG-26 made a successful bombing & strafing attack on an Anglo/Canadian Armored column that was strung out along the Hamburg-Hannover highway. The attack was recalled on Caldwell's JG-26 books, but I was curious if anybody can relate the damage/losses suffered by the armed column that was attacked?

Thx

NM

Hello
try to establish the Allied unit in question, if it was 11th Armoured Div, 6th Guards Tank/Armoured Brig, 15th Scottish or 43 Wessex Div, IIRC all operated in that area, I'll then try to find info on relevant unit histry, when I have tim eto do that.
