Hello Remi

I would have said that on 2 May '45 it was "business as usual" - with substantial German forces still in being in Denmark, Norway and Czechoslovakia, plus the (mythical) Alpine Redoubt - Allied air and ground forces had no reason to do anything else than keep up the pressure.

The Bu 131's and Fi 156's could have contained senior officers attempting to escape to somewhere more secure?

If you look back to the 125 Wing ORB on page 1 you can clearly see that large amounts of MET were still in existence and also at least one Me 262 and an Ar 234 were still operational in 125 Wing's area, and they probably weren't alone.

cheers

Allan
