I have a map showing the location of the 75th Guards Rifle Division outside of Stargard, Germany in February 1945. However, I cannot locate the 231st Guards Rifle Regiment. Does anyone know where this regiment was located during this period of time?

Re: 231st GSP - Operation Pomeranian 1945
Thank you Virginian!
Unfortunately the last two map links you provided give a 503 error code. Is there another way you can add the maps?
Also, how do I get the same reports for time between 10 January - 31 January 1945?
