You asked about units in/around NW Poland in the winter of 2000. I'm assuming you meant NATO forces? If so, the U.S. XI Corps apparently stayed behind, during/after Operation Omega/Return. It consisted of:
50th U.S. AD (2200; 33)
4th Canadian MB (1000; 6)
116th U.S. ACR (600;8)
2nd U.S. Marine Division (3400; 14)
This is from Going Home.
Here's a Corps level deep reconaissance and rading unit that I made up that operates in the region: http://forum.juhlin.com/showthread.p...light=commando
If you're also looking for PACT and newly independent units operating in NW Poland, let me know.
Once piece of constructive criticism: I think 43 kills is way too high a tally in the jet age. The top scoring jet ace of all time (Israeli, Giora Epstein) has something like 17 kills and that was across three wars. A few ME262 pilots scored around 16 kills (in jets) as did a couple of Korean War jet pilots. I think 13 or 14 kills would be more realistic for a pilot of the background which you described. |
Thanks for the positive comments.
I'm actually looking for units in early 2000 as an alternative to the 2nd Marines.
Fair comment on the kills I will reduce but probably keep in the 20s as the fighting will be far more intense than the quoted wars.
