Re: Gotha Crashes in Holland Aug/Sept. 1917

Thanks Chris what I have now from web sources for the 28/29th Sept is :-

GIV 1065/16 16/Kag.3 Vfw.Emil Haas, Lt.d.R Martin Emmler Vfw. Heinrich Schreiber all killed crash in ZuiderZee wreckage recovered 13-10-17. One source credits this to a HP 0/100 gunship no 3134 but I believe it engaged two Gothas on the next night 29/30th. Sept.

GIV 602/16 13/Kag.3 Ltn. Metzer wounded, Oblt. Rudolf Bauele St.Kap, Ltn. Boman wounded in crash landing Sas-van-Gent all interned

GIV 668/16 Kag.3 Lt.Hans Starck, ? Herbert Fliege, Fw Wolfgang Dietz landed at Sneek and crew set fire to aircraft all interned.

GIV 15/Kag.3 Uffz Kurt Delang, Lt. Paul Doge, Uffz. Jodicke all injured in crash in Belgium following AA damage over Sheppey.

The only name I have for 18th Aug. is the same as you Lt.d.R Adolf Hochgrabe, I cant find any crew details for the Gotha at Beerta credited to a lucky shot by a Sergeant Lok or the one burnt by its crew at Blijham,

Regards
