Hi Peter and Alexander,

This topic has been discussed before on this forum. Based on all the inputs my current matching is as follows, and indeed links Hahn to Werk as suggested by Alexander:

1./StG2 Junkers Ju87B. Returned severely damaged by Hurricanes of No. 87 Squadron over Tirlemont 3.30 p.m. BF Uffz Herbert Schneider killed, pilot unhurt. Aircraft damage state not recorded.

2./StG2 Junkers Ju87B. Shot down by Hurricanes of No. 87 Squadron over Tirlemont and crashed near St Trond 3.30 p.m. FF Uffz Heinz Lange and BF Obergefr Albrecht Fischer killed. Aircraft a write-off.
Heinz Johann Lange was initially burried at Brustem.

2./StG2 Junkers Ju87B. Shot down by Hurricanes of No. 87 Squadron over Tirlemont and crashed at Attenhoven 3.30 p.m. BF Uffz Ernst Chuchra killed. FF Lt Siegfried Dryander captured unhurt. Aircraft a write-off.
2./StG2 Junkers Ju87B. Shot down by Hurricanes of No. 87 Squadron over Tirlemont 3.30 p.m. FF Uffz Heinz Werk and BF Uffz Richard Hahn killed. Aircraft a write-off.
From 12 OCH discussion: Werk (pilot) & BF Uffz Richard Hahn (gunner) were from same crew; first burried Eben Emael, later Lommel. Chuchra was initially burried at Leuven. But now not clear to which crew Chuchra belonged. Most likely the previous one at Attenhoven.

2./StG2 Junkers Ju87B. Returned damaged by Hurricanes of No. 87 Squadron over Tirlemont 3.30 p.m. Flieger Hilfsschütze Gefr Karl-Heinz Schmidt badly wounded, pilot unhurt. Aircraft repairable.

3./StG2 Junkers Ju87B. Shot down by Hurricanes of No. 87 Squadron over Maastricht 3.30 p.m. BF Uffz Heinrich Diegmann killed. FF Uffz Fritz Fiebranz captured wounded. Aircraft a write-off.

Still some speculative elements in it, but overall a better match/explanation.


Cheers, Pieter
