Wille Rehul, KIA 1940, Porlock crash.

Dear all!
I am writing this from sunny Afgan so i do not have the details in front of me! i am trying to locate a picture of a german aircrew who was killed when his aircraft crashed at porlock in 1940 beach. Date escapes me!

It was in the BofB and he was the only member of the crew to be killed.

It was a 152 squadron shoot down. The picture i have is a bad copy it is of him in France in his uniform holding a bit of paper.

Does anybody have a better copy that they would not mind me using in a book?

Thanks for taking the time to have a look at this and for all your help.

Regards

Danny Burt

Hi
There were some photos in a book I read, I am going back to the late 70's, it showed the a/c on the beach, etc.
It might be called 'life on lundy' by gade ?
cheers
Jerry
