Re: Ju88A 21 August 1940, Kings Sompting

Here is what we carry in the EoE LW Loss DB for this crash:

"21 August 1940: 1./KG54 Junkers Ju88A-1. Shot down by SL J.S. O’Brien and P/O R.F.T. Doe of No.234 Squadron during armed-reconnaissance over southern England. Jettisoned bombs and crashed in flames and burned out at King’s Sombourne 2.15 p.m. BO Oberlt Max-Dankwart Birkenstock, FF Obergefr Gerhard Freude, BF Uffz Rudolf Schulze, and BS Gefr Franz Becker all missing. Aircraft 100% write-off.
No prescribed burial of the remains of this crew took place and they now lie in an unconsecrated and unregistered grave close to the spot where they crashed. A memorial stone inscribed to 'To 4 Unknown German Airmen Aug 23 1940' was erected alongside a lane on nearby Hoplands Farm."

I think that this is what you wanted.
