Alain,

According to Chorley the crew were as follows;

FO R.F.H. Denton RNZAF
Sgt W.N. Hartshorn -Injured
F/S E. Kneebone
FO E.R. Goebel -Injured
F/S G. Thomson -Fatally injured, died on 23/1/45
Sgt E.J. Potts -Fatally injured, died on 1/1/45 (?)
Sgt J.T. Price -Injured

BCL states that the bomber 'crash-landed in a field near the Vosbergstraat at Grolder (Noord-Brabant), 3km SW of Heesch'.

Regards,

Steve Pegge
