Re: A Do 17 P lost on 6 or 7.09.19 near Nałączów?

Mirek,

In the EoE LW photo DB we have three photos of a 1H+AM with 1939-style fuselage crosses being salvaged after a crash landing. It has numerous bullet strike on it that appear to be from a fighter attack from the rear. Initially, I thought that it was the 1H+AM lost in Poland. However, another photo of this same a/c has a caption stating that this a/c FL near "'Borgwedel,' which is located in Schleswig-Flensburg district not far from the Danish border in N.Germany (NW of Kiel). This would suggest, if this info is correct, that the photos of 1H+AM were not the one forced down on 04 Sept 1939, but a later a/c that carried the same markings. However, we don't immediately find a candidate for this one.

Questions for Mirek and other readers,

1) do you know of any photos of the He111 that was lost in Poland on 4 Sept?

2) Does anyone know any candidates for a later He111H that crashed in N. Germany carrying the same code, 1H+AM?

Hope someone can help.
