Many thanks in advance,
Edwin
Edwin,

Could you refine your request? Are you looking for the units which saw actual combat and only the short-range reconnaissance units?
Incidentally, these were squadrons (and not like the British/US size squadrons, but smaller ones). At first, there was a regiment (which staff could do not to much, since these squadrons were subordinated to the ground units directly). Later the regiment was disbanded and two groups were formed (both with two squadrons each) and at the end of the war, after another reforming a new photo reco group was formed (with two squadrons).
