May 10th 1940 -Belgium -JU52 crashed
 
Hello everyone !
We're surching for the crew of the 2 JU52's ( shot down ) from the TransportStaffel I.Fliegerkorps.
One crashed at NIVES and the other at GRAND-ROSSIERES ( Belgium).
This happened during the Operation NIWI.
Were the crewmembers KIA, MIA or SAFE ???
Thanks in advance for your help,
fredcompa

Peter, you have the patience of a saint to keep answering these inquiries - particularly given that you've authored an incredible book on the same. I guess books are now just another archaic relic of an earlier age.
