Re: Ghostbombers updates

I've updated my site this morning with the following new material:
  • New article: The Dillingen bridge and »Wasserballon«, April 1945.
  • Sonderstaffel Einhorn: information supplementing my two Axis Wings articles including: a proposed Bombentorpedo operation by I./SKG 10 in July 1944; a conference about using Schlachtflieger against ships on 9 July 1944; General Staff discussions in June 1944 about deploying 'self-sacrifice' pilots; 6th Airborne Division's account of a night attack by an Fw 190 on 20 April 1945; and more order of battle figures.
  • Me 262 reconnaissance: information supplementing my Axis Wings article 'Panthers Taking Pictures'.
  • NSGr. 8: some additions about the unit's early days, including congratulations on its 1,000th night sortie.
  • He 111 torpedo operations, July–August 1940: information about the first conversions of He 111s to carry torpedoes.
  • Kommando Rastedter: added a radar reconnaissance flight on 30 July 1944.
  • Geschwader Bongart: additions about early Luftdienstkommando arrivals in France; the search for two mines jettisoned over German-occupied territory on 18 June 1944; more about a Ju 88 which crashed on 17 August 1944 (with thanks to Laurent Battut) and authorisation to use guided weapons against land targets.
  • Kommando Schäfer: additions for 9 June and 24 July 1944.
  • Sonderstaffel Kaatsch: sighting of a Bf 109 by German army unit near Belfort, on 30 September 1944.
  • Jagdgruppe 200: the 11. Flak Division's claims of two B-17s over Toulouse-Blagnac on 25 June and Nineteenth Army's report on fighter and Flak successes against the 5 July 1944 raid on Toulon.
  • Kampfflieger Vol. 4 (page 339): Army Group B diary entry about IX. Fliegerkorps' belated interventions against the U.S. Army's Operation COBRA.
