Re: Missions KG 51 (J) end of April '45

SES is correct, it remained a Kampfgeschwader flying bombing missions. In late April it operated against the American bridgehead at Dillingen (from memory, I'll have to check that) before the small number of aircraft remaining retreated to bases around Prague. A few of the unit's jets were taken over by JV 44 as well.
