Re: 2/606 Loss off Ireland 11 Oct 40

Hallo Chris,

Thanks for that information. Fascinating detail regarding Heine and his subsequent war career (KIA 1943 I think !) and now we also have his first name.

Can anyone please indicate a map location for that grid reference ? Is it possible that should be SJ0684 ?

To avoid turning the related thread on the Allied forum into a totally Luftwaffe one I will make these comments here concerning Dornier 17 '7T+HL' which was lost on 9 October 1940.
Are there NMVs (?) for the crew of '7T+HL' (to confirm the date of their loss) ? I have no knowledge of this side of Luftwaffe research.
There is a handwritten note ('Tote') added in at a later date to the original on the IWM copy of the microfilm beside the names of Harbou, Langer and Rubesam. This seems to indicate the bodies of these 3 crewmen were recovered, but this now seems to be in error. Any comments or suggestions welcome.

Regards,

Martin.
