Heduschka and his crew were taken POW when shot down by a night fighter west of Le Mans at 0030 hrs. Without an accurate date of death of this airman you write about, your task is impossible

The little info that I have, is that the incomplete skeleton found on 02.12.59 was of a guy of around 30, no other graves were found at this location, and he was said to have been a pilot killed while trying to make an emergency landing, this info is from the VDK.
