I was wondering if any neblewerfers were assigned to the German Airborne units? Not just a rocker unit, but one with Airborne crews. I thank you for your help in advance. |

afaik only as Corps/Army level support units, in which has they probably still wore their Heer artillery uniforms. It was pretty rare to have integral divisional Nebelwerfer units, even in Heer and SS formations although the odd panzer division had one. |

Not according to Zetterling, although they may have had some Nebelwerfers in support from Corps. It did have a heavy mortar company (13 Ko) equipped with nine 120mm mortars though. A possible source of confusion? |
