You would be better off posting Allied queries on the Allied not Luftwaffe Board. No doubt a Moderator will be moving this and your other post shortly

Hello,

Dakota KG512, was not involved in "Market Garden". It was flying a resupply mission to the 2nd British Army. The pilot's surname was HARTLEY, not HARTEY, and the correct date was the 21st September, 1944.
