Re: TG30 He111 25-12-1944
Helmut Gruner was a member of the Kriegsmarine, not of the Luftwaffe. So it could have been a passenger of the He 111, but probably not a crew.
One year ago one could search the Volksbund databse by setting only the three first letters of a name. It was very useful to find names from written documents.
Now you have to type the whole name (there is a phonetic search function but it takes forever for me and never replies???). I searched for Lecker, Lecher and Lekker but did not find our man.
AFAIK all men buried in the Lommel war cemetery should be registered in the database. So either the men were posted missing but survived, or as they crashed near the frontline in a very disputed area, their bodies were hastily disposed of by one side or the other and have been lost since.
