Losses of the 17. Flak Division in Kamenets-Podolsky Pocket in March-April 1944

I'm looking for information regarding the losses of this unit in the Kamenets-Podolsky Pocket as part of 1. Panzerarmee. Since it is a Luftwaffe ground unit and not an army unit, this division is never mentioned in the order of battle. However, from numerous sources that I've read, it is said that this division suffered heavy losses during the breakout, not just in equipment, but also in personnel. After the breakout, the remnants were withdrawn from the Ukraine to Poland.
I'm interested to know what are the personnel losses of this unit for the given period. Similarly, what is the personnel strength of this unit on 1 March 1944 and after the breakout.
