Re: E.Stelle loss 23.04.1940.
Hi JoMe,
Thank you for the correction in spelling. I have now found the card on Ancestry and updated my records.
Matti is correct about Fw. Karl Peterman. I have his record as:
1/Kü.Fl.Gr. 406.
Dornier Do18D (0836). Operational sortie. Shot down by 3 RAF Skua's into the North Sea east of Orkney Islands. Fw. Karl Petersen (FF) killed (Sea grave). Lt zur See Max Keil (B) killed (Sea grave). Obgefr. Werner Merg (Bf) killed (Sea grave). Uffz. Jakob Ims (Bm) killed (Sea grave). Aircraft K6+FH lost.
As the aircraft crashed in the Lübecker Bucht, Perhaps Dipl.-Ing Karl Petersen and Wilhelm Baumann are missing, which would explain why there is no record on Ancestry or the VDK?
Thanks again for your help.
