    Heeres-Küstenbatterie 363 ?

    Hello, does anyone have any info on Heeres-Küstenbatterie 363 ?
    I cant find anything on Lexicon.
    I suspect they were in Libya 1941-42.

    Thanks kindly for any info.

    Heeres-Küstenbatterie 363

    Hi,

    Artillerie Kommando 104, formed early 1941 to consolidate all miscellaneous artillery units of the Panzer Armee Afrika. The order of battle as of 1941 included:

    Stab II./Artillerie Rgt. 115
    6./Artillerie Rgt. 115
    Artillerie Batterie 362

    4./Armee Kustenartillerie-Batterie 149

    It also consisted of:

    Stab. Artillerie Regiment 221
    Artillery Abteilung 364
    (Heeres Kusten Batterie 364)

    http://www.lexikon-der-wehrmacht.de/...g/ARAfrika.htm

    Another Kustenartillerie, attached to a Heer unit, is within Gruppe Hain, formed September 16, 1942:

    12. Kustenartillerie-Batterie (consisting of 7.6 cm guns). Gruppe Hain was ordered to Fort Sollum to bolster the Italian garrison (12. Kustenartillerie-Batterie) which was transferred to Gruppe Hain.

    The attached photo is of the Artilleriekommando 104 order of battle as it appeared in 1941. From: Bender & Law, Uniforms, Organization and History of the Afrikakorps, p. 97. See also, p. 36 (Artilleriekommando 104 order of battle as of August 15, 1942).

    Do you have any more information on this unit?
