Re: Besatzung Von Glasow 8th Staffel III/KG53

Thomas,

Looking on the Luft Qm's list it has the loss of A1+FS flown by Fw.Frans Grave as shot down on 2-10-41 with the Bf returning, this is also described in the Kiehl book page 167. Ltn Glasow is shown as missing in the Tula area in the A1+IS on the 23-11-41 (report dated 29-11-41) however an admendment in the report dated 5-11-41 shows the crew of Ltn Glasow as returned (page 169 of Kiehl book).
Ltn Glasow was shot down and taken POW following a raid on the Swansea Docks on 4/5-8-42. Glasow and two of his crew were picked up from their dinghy north of Bude the morning after the raid and fell to a Beaufighter of 125 Sqd.

Regards
