Good evening !
Your a/c in question came down at Bisperode, probaly close to the road "Harderoog" or to the vincinity "Haus Harderoge near Bisperode-Hameln" at about 13:30 hrs this day.
The incident was well documented in the German Luftgaukommando-Reports for this day, filed as # J 3045 and 132266/74, which are today available at the National Archives of the United States.
It must have been this a/c, since both documents mention the a/c's Serial as EJ687.
Best wishes !"
