Re: Do18 lost 6 September 1939
There were no loss of a He 59 on 6.9.39, one was lost 04.09.39.
Likewise, there were no Do 18 loss on 06.09.39. The only Do 18 loss between 03.09.39 and 12.09.39 did happen on 07.06.39. The loss was reported in the KTB of Gen.d.Lw.b.Ob.d.M. on 08.09.39, the day after it took place. It involved Do 18D-3 W.Nr. 833 8L+WK of 2./606. The aircraft turned over and sank during landing at night in Kamp returning from a recce sortie. The crew were:
Uffz. Ernst Hinrichs (F) severly injured and later died.
Oblt.z.See Rabach (B) killed
Uffz. Evers (Bw) killed
Obgefr. Rusch (Bf) lightly injured
Perhaps someone has the full names for this crew.
