Kolberg 1945?

[I have questions]

It doesn't appear there is a thread on this. Does anyone know, aside from elements of the 33rd SS, what units were defending Kolberg from March 8th - 18th, 1945? The amount of tanks and troops? I think I remember reading somewhere that there were only two artillery batteries in the city, but I don't know and that number seems too small. My primary reference is "On The Devil's Tail", but that is just one man's experience of the battle. Any kind of info would be appreciated.

There is a list of "units" in "Die letzten Tage von Kolberg" by Johannes Voelker. His estimate was that there were 5000 to 5500 defenders.

There's also this:
