Thank you Jaap. While I am happy to accept that the 5J+JN may have come down at Rosmalen and not Alblasserdam, can I ask is there any evidence beyond the proximity of the hospital at Nuland to support this claim ?

The crash site of the aircraft is shown as Alblasserdam in the Weisz manuscript and also Bulletin Air War No.247 (T114) produced by your own Study Group. This source also shows a He111 down at Rosmalen on that day but it remained unidentified (T128A).

Any clarification appreciated.
