Re: He 177 crash in Germany on 29 April 1944
From the NVM it shows Hpt. Wunderlich as the Ff with the crew including the two mechanics all from the 6/KG40. Oblt Manner is shown at the bottom as a Ff but from 4/KG40 so I assume he was a passenger. The eight men were buried on the 7-5-1944 at Friedhof Pottiga b. Lobenstein. There was a memorial service a couple of years ago with the wife of Fw Kunze attending, the site reporting this states the right engine caught fire causing the crash.
