    Hello guys,

    I'm collecting anything related to the towns Castricum and Bakkum during WWII.

        No, that would be 7 Kompanie, Grenadier Regiment 915.

          The Rgt. belonged to the 352. VGD and on 9 February 1945 it was located in and around Trier in the Eifel. Prior to that it was in the Ardennes offensive, and after the Eifel it fought in the Rhineland operation to the south of Remagen. There is lots and lots of information on it if you want to dig around in the history books.
