Lot of empty schels were found from French 7.5 cm flak at Agde , maybe from these two units 6./and 7./ H.K.L.A. 101 ??

Document = NARA

According to the books of Alain Chazette ("AOK 19 Mittelmeerküstenfront") and David Mallen ("Agde"):

On 25.11.1943 there were 5 batteries of the HKALA 101 with the following main weapons:

1./ 101 4* 10,5 cm K. 331 (f)
2./ 101 4* 10,5 cm K. 35 (t)
3./ 101 4* 10,5 cm K. 331 (f) + 2* 7,5 cm F.K. 16 n.A.
4./ 101 3* 17 cm K.i.M.L. + 2* 7,5 cm F.K. 16 n.A.
5./ 101 6* 8,38 cm K 271 (e) + 3* 7,5 cm F.K. 235 (b)

At David Mallen I found the WN 062 in Agde:
WN 062 6* 7,5 cm Flak 17-34 (f)
This is probably later a battery of HKALA 101
David can certainly write more!

Jos, did you find in the NARA document something of the 1. / 101 and 2. / 101 and the guns (15.2 cm K. 15/16 (t)) of the old 3./778 of my father?

only 5 batteries were etatisiert - 6. und 7./101 are Kommandoweg-Batterien only (never read about these yet)

WN 062 6* 7,5 cm Flak 17-34 (f)

At my current stage of research this Wn 062 was managed by Luftwaffe the s. Alarm .Flak Bttr 309. / XII. (green)

atrillerie Karte IV.Lw.Feldkorps 25.07.1944

To my knowledge in July, 1944 there were only 5 batteries and in here is the main armaments (I do not get into detail here of the complete armament of batteries)

GLEIDERUND 25.03.44

1./ 101 4* 10,5 cm K. 331 (f) °°
2./ 101 4* 10,5 cm K. 35 (t)
3./ 101 4* 10,5 cm K. 331 (f)
4./ 101 3* 17 cm K18 L/50
5./ 101 6* 8,38 cm K 271 (e)

°° the (15.2 cm K. 15/16 (t) Artillery have were found in periphery of the future battery 1./ 101 which were in court(yard) of construction in July and August, 1944

For the very interesting document of jopaerya on 25.06.44 I think that it is a bad note of batteries but it remains to confirm I am going to examine on this matter.

Thanks David

Maybe it's a ad-hoc formation , just like in Normandie H.K.A.A.1255 http://forum.axishistory.com/viewtopic.php?t=121447
