A third and final query, also about the Luftwaffe in the East in 1945. This concerns a unit of Luftwaffenkommando Nordost, called Kampfgruppe Freiheit, subordinated to Gefechtsverband Helbig. In the middle and second half of April, it reported that it had about 30 Ju 88 bombers on strength, but only five or so crews. Does anyone know what was the original identity and operational task of this unit, or anything else about it? It appears not to have been a unit of either LG 1 or KG(J) 30, the two obvious possibilities.
Everyone is welcome to either reply here, or contact me by private message.
Regards,
Dan
