Polish Artillary Attacking Berlin

I know that Polish artillary, at least under Soviet command bombarded Berlin from the North. I have been trying to find information on any Polish units attacking Berlin and I am unsuccesulf. So if someone could find something out about the Polish attacking Berlin it would be really helpful. My interest is mostly due to the fast that I have found out that my grandfather who was with Polish artillary fought in northern germany and took part in bombardments on Berlin. Any information would be appreciated.

Edit~ I found out recently that 2800 Polish casaulties during battle for Berlin, but it is a source I don't trust 100%.

 

I read about four polish units taking part in fighting in Berlin. They were 1st infantry divission, 2nd howitzer brigade, 1st mortar brigade nad 6th motorized engineers battalion.

 

thanks busdriver I appreciate the help.
