Uffz Heinz Götte 2/04/1940 or 2/04/1944
 

Hi !

Uffz Heinz Götte is presently buried at the German War Cemetery at Lommel (Belgium). The date of this death is mentioned as 2/04/1944 on his grave, but the Volksbund website mentiones 2/04/1940.
He was originally buried at Veurne cemetery (= Furnes), which is rather close to France and the Belgian coast.

Who has more details about his last flight and the plane in which he crashed ?

Many thanks and best regards

Luc

Hello Luc

As far as I know he was killed the 1/4/1940 at Houtem (B-8630) he was aboard a He-111 (unit?) shot down by a French fighter Curtis H-75 from GC II/2

Hi Phil,

Many thanks for your reply. Is it possible that at the age of 18 he already had this grade (in 1940) ?

Best regards

Luc
