Re: Do 215 landing at Querqueville

Hello Mike,

Is this info all you have or do you have perhaps info about what happened to the crew? My Do215 database reveals one loss in 'northern France' which is not very specific:

Do215 B-1 (Wnr. 0022), 4./(F)AGr. ObdL, code G2+HH (HM is more likely), 5 June 1940, 2 KIA, 2 WIA, crew of pilot Lt. von Brandt

and there is another loss in the general area of the Normandy:
Do215, (F)AGr. ObdL, further details unknown, near Le Havre, 2 KIA, 1 WIA

Other Do215 crashes in France were reported at
Neufchateau (31 July 1940),
Evreux (2 March 1941),
Le Bourget (10 March 1941),
Villeneuve-Orly (21 March 1941),
FlH. Orly (19 August 1941) and
FlH. Villaroche (3 August 1943)
all to far away from the Cherbourg peninsula.

Not a conclusive answer but perhaps a start in the good direction. All the best,
