According to my information, the HAWK battery assigned to Wildflecken was re-flagged several times. I believe that for at least one period there were two batteries, one towed and one mobile. The information I have indicates the following chronology:

C Battery, 3/7 Air Defense Artillery (1961) B Battery, 6/52 Air Defense Artillery (1962) B Battery, 6/562 Air Defense Artillery (1963-1964) B Battery, 1/1 Air Defense Artillery (1964-1987) HQ Battery, 1/1 Air Defense Artillery (1976-1987) B Battery, 6/52 Air Defense Artillery (1987-1992)

The 1961-1964 information is based on personal knowledge as I was assigned to the HAWK battery during that period.

By the way, the Battalion Headquarters for the first three were Schweinfurt, Hanau, and Butzbach, respectively.

If anyone has additional or more accurate information, please provide it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wilsonse (talkcontribs) 06:00, 24 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
