Unknown crashed DO-217
 
Last week I saw a photo album from someone out of the WWII resistance, living in Friesland (around Leeuwarden). I saw a couple of photos taken at a DO 217 crashsite and a picture of 4 names on a grave on one of the pages. Sadly the owner was not known. Please find attached. Does anyone have any idea about the id of this aircraft? I could not find any hit on the shown names on the grave-cross. Thanks!
Harry
