I am seeking info on the fellow crew members of Fw Wilhelm Grüter, EM 62741/82, lost near St Lo on 28.07.44.

Thanks Chris,
Did any of these three survive the crash, and do you have a more precise location.

Thanks to Chris and Flupke,
I see that Hpt Riecker and Fw Grüter are buried at La Cambe, but cannot find a Borgmann or Becker with the correct date of death, are their dates of birth known?

31 Jul 16 in Wuppertal and 24 Oct 24 in Krainhagen respectively

Thanks again Chris,
So Borgmann's death is shown as 25th and Becker's as the 29th on the VDK's Gräbersuche, I can see a reason for Becker's date of death, but not Borgmann's.
