German flyers washed ashore in Denmark
 

During the war a number of German flyers were washed ashore in Denmark. I am looking for information on what squadron they belonged to, where and when they were lost, and information about their aircraft + whatever you can come up with.
The info beneath is from the cemetery and parish protocols.
Can anyone help me with formations about these ?

Karl Heinrich Bauer washed ashore on the island of Römö on 26/11-38. 23 years old. Taken to the German island of Sild on 27/11.

Unteruffizier. Siegfried Constabel born 9/5-17. Laid to rest in Lemvig 6/7-1940.

Oberfeldwebel Günter Spanke born 27/1-1910. Believed died on 12/9-1940. Was found washed ashore at Lyngvig 2/12 1940. Seenotsflug nr. 2 12/9 1940 Flugzeug JU 88 mark nr. 328. He was brought to Germany.

Obergefreiter Karl Auernhammer born 7/10 1911. Found washed ashore near Uggerby 6/9 1941. Rest in Frederikshavn.

Obergefreiter Heinz Stade born 13/8 1919. Died 17/7 1941. Found ned Søndervig and was laid to rest in Lemvig on 6/9 1941.

Unteroffizier Heinrich Kachold born 22/6 1924. Died 3/12-44. Found washed ashore on the island of Römö and was laid to rest in Esbjerg on 7/12-44. 3/12-44 could well be the date he was found and not the day he died.

Obergefreiter Karl Hermann Herr found near Magleby on 29/5 1945 and laid to rest in Magleby 1/6-45. Moved to Odense 27/11-65.

Obergefreiter Helmut Mathews born 7/1 1924. Died 23/3 1945. Found washed ashore at Sögaard 10/6 1945 and was laid to rest in Nr. Lyngvig cemetery 17/6-45. Rest under a civilian stone.

Hi Chris
