Fallschirmjäger order of battle changed alot over the war, so the timeframe you want to put them is important to know.

The project spans the annexation of austria to the fall of berlin.

The project is a novel. I'd like to be as acurate as possible. I want to honor them as best I can. Any help would be deeply appreciated.

There are books on specific FJ units. Maybe you could look up a few to see if they have the info you need and then have your project "follow" a unit that is in the book.
