Re: RAF Fortress HB763
Hi Heuser,
yes you are right, the RAF losses and related crew members in bavaria are mostly buried in Dürnbach. But this cemerey started beeing used as far as i know around early 1946. So some dead soldiers have been buried inbetween on other grave sites. I have the case of a RAF crew member, who was buried 1943 in a local cemetery south of munich, than transfered by US soldiers after war in summer 1945 to Reuti, a cemetery near Ulm, finally transfered 1948 to Durnbach!
The crashside of this "unknown" B-17 was about 4 Miles west of Dachau, near a village called Bergkirchen. (So Approx. 20 Miles NW of Munich center).
Best greetings from bavaria
Lino
