Yes these were the 2 Ta152C's I was referring to. In the reference section of the Crandell EagleCal decal sheet for the Ta152C he refers to a Luftwaffe Quartermeister report dated 20 April 1945 that had these 2 aircraft on the report as operational aircraft.
I trust Jerry and believe it if he says it. I just really thought I had seen a copy of it in print somewhere. Thank you for your help.
