Missing Army Flak Brigades and their 'Drilling'

Post by Wiedrock »

There were several Army Flak Brigades. They, and their individual Battalions are missing. The Battalions were partially created from other SUs which are also missing. They were created in late 1944/early 1945 and used the 151 Drillings MG/Flak.
