Flak unit

Hello,

I research operations of the Royal Air Force during WWII over North France. Now I´am doing on project what´s concerned to one sweep in a half of May 1942. I´am not expert for ground units, Flak in the concrete and believe this is the best forum to ask.
Can anybody help me what Flak unit (Division, Regiment) was based on French shore between the towns Calais and Boulogne s/M in that period ?
Any help and comments much appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Regards,
Michal Havrda

There were probably quite a few Flak Abteilungen in that area. You might want to explore Michael Holm's website at http://www.ww2.dk and especially:

6. Flak-Division (until April 1942)

Flak-Regiment 132 (mot.) in Boulogne
Flak-Regiment 129 (mot.) in Dunkirk

Good luck!

Hi,

Following the good idea of k-pp, I've found that the gemischte Flak-Abteilung 122 (v) was at Boulogne between june 1941 and july 1942.

So long.
