Seeking info on Do17 crashed into house roof prob WC 1940 code ?5+H?

Hello,

Here's another probably 1940 WC crash in Belgium or France of a Do17 into a house roof. Codes ?5+H? Anybody got any info or ideas?

There are also two different photos of this incident on page 42 of Luftwaffe im Focus issue 7 and it is captioned as Do17R-4 T5+NC of 2./Aufkl.Gr.Ob.d.L which struck the roof of the Richthofen School in Legebruch on 11 December 1941. A similar image can also be found on page 9 of "On Secret Missions" by Smith, Creek & Petrick [Classic, 2003]

Peter,

My appreciation for your comments. This eliminates it from the EOE time period of 1939-40.
