I am seeking information on the Höherer Artillerie-Kommandeur 302 (HArko 302). Specifically, where did it end up after December 1944..? At that point in the war, it was attached as a part of the 4th Army in Eastern Prussia, near the Baltic, possibly trying to help break the siege of Konigsberg from the West near the Vistula lagoon. My assumption is that they were captured and/or disbanded. Information I have on one officer: (Hauptmann) Erik Hornemann (EK I.) served in this unit (as a Stab officer) until he was captured. I don't know when, where or by whom he was made a prisoner, but according to the German WASt (translated acronym: Department for the Notification of the Next of Kin), he was released to his wife in Lübeck, Germany on July 31st, 1945 by "British Authorities." One last factoid is that the Harko 302 Commander at the end of the war, Herbert Wagner, was captured by the Russians and held for several years after the war ended. He is a pretty high profile figure, but nowhere does it say where and how HE was captured/surrendered either.
If anyone has any info on this unit, please share!
