Question on an SS Artillery Unit...

[Sarge125]

I have an ID disk with the designation 12 SS Artillery Regiment 5. Would anyone be able to tell me a bit about this unit, or where it can be researched?
Thanks!

Look up a copy of European Volunteers by Peter Strassner for an English language divisional history of Wiking.
