Re: Dutch Fokker ( with Dutch crew ) landing on a lake - 1940

Adriano,

A quick search revealed that H. Schaper became Lt. Gen after the war, was was Commander of the Royal Netehrlands Air Force (1956-1961) and was State Secretary of Defense (Air Force matters) from 1966-1967. He died on 26-5-1996.

Willem Ritte was killed when Mitchell FR144 crashed on 30/7/1943 over the North Sea while on an ASR mission.

Klasinus van Tongeren was killed on 2/12/1941 while on an convoy escort flight off Norway. He's buried in Oslo.

The Fokkers of 320 Squadron were soon replaced by Avro Ansons and Lockheed Hudsons, and ultimately by Mitchells.

Regards,
