Gentlemen,

I knew there were three Ar-196 floatplanes that took from the German heavy cruiser Prinz Eugen not only to direct range for the cruiser's big guns on land targets,but also dropped bombs on other ground targets as well. I don't know how many missions did the Ar-196 floatplanes flew for the Prinz Eugen during the bombardments of Soviet land targets during the 1944-1945 period. Were there any other German surface warships that you can think of that launched floatplanes that carried bombs to go against land targets like the Prinz Eugen did?

Sincerely,

Edward L. Hsiao
