Re: Heinkel 111H 2/KG53 18.11.40
Steve,
We carry similar info in the Luft EoE Loss DB: "November 19, 1940: 2./KG53 Heinkel He111H-5 (3564). Crash-landed at Vitry-en-Artois following sortie, cause not stated. FF Lt Kurt Lehmann, BO Uffz Karl Rehm, BF Obergefr Ernst Knauer, and HS Gefr Werner Voigtländer all slightly injured. Aircraft 80% damaged - write-off." Would certainly appreciate photos if anyone has same for this crash. Regards,

Hi Larry, thank you for details concerning the EoE incident for Lehmann.
Unfortunately i haven't located any photos of this crash landing. I wonder whether you could possibly help once more with another similar querie. 15.9.40 He111H-2 A1+JL 3/KG53 3 wounded when returning from ops over London and ultimately forced landing at Boulogne. Does the EoE list the wounded crewmen? Kindest regs, Steve.
