I'm looking for any informations about the Luftwaffe part of the Operation Rescue in 1945.
Specially I'm looking for infos in the Courland flights of the Luftwaffe in May 1945.
Who gave the order for these flights??
Was there any high-ranking officer responsible for this last action??
(Or was it so chaotically in those days, that some squadron-leaders and flight-leaders ordered it)
Which German planes were involved??
Which German Wings/Groups/Squadrons were involved??
How many soldiers were rescued??
How many (& which) German planes were shot down??
Were there flights only from Norwegian air-fields into the pocket of Courland, or were there flights from other air-fields??

Are there any sources covering the Luftwaffe part in the Operation Rescue in 1945??
