[19JDKR45]

During the afternoon of 5 Apr 45 some 74 assorted aircraft attacked the British 29th Armoured Brigade at Stolzenau on the River Weser in N Germany while it was carrying out crossing operations. Among the attacking aircraft identified by the gunners of 58th LAA Regiment were Ju88, Ju188, and Me109, and the regiment's war diary records that the aircraft dropped HE and AP bombs.

14.Fliegerdivision was responsible for air operations in North Germany at this time but had no units flying the Me109. It did, however, have one unit with Ju88 and Ju188, 1./FAGr 33, but these were long-range reconnaissance aircraft and, as I understand it, had neither bomb aimers nor (I assume) carried bombs. Could the Ju88 and Ju188 have come from II./KG200, which had these aircraft for pathfinder ops but could have used them in extremis for conventional bombing missions?

So....I have hit a bit of a brick wall trying to work out/find out which units owned these aircraft and would be very grateful for any help.
