Re: Luftnachrichtenschule 4 losses 5-4-44

The link below (in French) is listing crashes in Rhone department :

My traduction:
"During the morning, the Caudron Goéland 445 A 1, n° 976, with German markings and coded TC+KW, was shot down by an Allied fighter above Bron airfield. Feldwebell Herbert Rose (pilot), the radioman and three radiomen under training were killed. Only the pilot is buried in the German war cemetery of Dagneux.

The same day, probably the same Allied fighter shot down the Ju 86 E-8, Werk Nummer 3077, coded CU+NJ, above Bron airfield. Unteroffizier Franz Wolf (pilot), the radioman, the flight engineer and four radiomen under training were killed. Only the pilot is buried in the German war cemetery of Dagneux."

Remark: I'm not sure that the above statement about the pilots that were the only ones buried at Dagneux is true. As only their names were apparently known by the writer, they were the only ones found by him.
