Hi,
I am looking for information on the activities of the 438th Troop Carrier Group in April and May 1945 at Kölleda airfield in Germany (Allied code R18).
Can someone please help me, my colleague and I are preparing a book about this airport.
Thank you all very much for any information.
Regards, Tony

Hello,
The two links that I gave in my post above can be found in the "Stickies" section of this forum. They are pages from the
Numbered USAF Historical Studies number 140, Combat Units of WW2 by Maurer Maurer. Pages 310 and 311.
