Brian,

'Urgently' ? Here is what I currently have listed and I can find no record of these airmen in the VDK:

3./KGr.zbV 103 Junkers Ju52/3m (6423). Badly damaged by ground fire during aborted landing of troops of II./IR 324 at Oslo-Fornebu 8.05 a.m. Crashed and burned out. BO Hptmn Richard Wagner (Gruppenkommandeur) killed, FF Oberlt Robert Sandt (Staffelkapitän) injured, Fw Alfred Steenhold, Uffz[ ]Biemer, and Gefr[ ]Röhrs believed unhurt. Aircraft NG+VD 100% write-off.
