I'm hoping that a later reference to the artillery resources available to HG Division in the CAB document that I'm working through might make it clearer but, failing that, I'll report back when I can get to the original records in the IWM.
My suspicion is that it does indeed refer to both II. and III. Abteilung, but probably the Stab and Stabsbatterie of the two Abteilungen being attached to HG, but only with single batteries of each Abteilung (6. and 7.). At this time, the regiment was still rebuilding after losing I. and II. Abteilung in Tunisia in May. Shortly after, the IV. Abteilung was renamed II., but it is unclear when the I. Abteilung was rebuilt, but possibly not until June 1944.
Or it may refer to something else entirely.
