Luftw. aircrew casualties May 1940 Netherlands

[Black6]

Is information like this example below of interest to anybody ?

Feldw (Bordm) Willy Wosczyna (DOB 03.12.13 Gleiwitz)
EM 60026/27
3/ KG 54
Shot down 11.05.40 at 5km NW of Hulst
Buried Gorinken/Breda

and

Oblt (Fliegerfhr) Rudolf Von Wartenberg (DOB 25.01.13 Herischdorf)
EM 62758/182
1/KG 30
Shot down 10.05.40 (approx 0800 hours) Beek b. Breda
Buried Breda

I have details of a large number of similar men, Luftwaffe aircrew mostwith KG, ZG or KG zbV, KuFlGr, Kurrierstaffel, usw, all killed/died in May 1940 in Holland. No aircraft details are listed but often the place of crash and even exact time, with original place of burial. I remember that QMG does not give NCO names so took the chance to record these.

I researched WASt material some years ago to collate information on 1940 Fallschirmjager casualties for a friend and recorded these because they looked interesting. I will probably have similar for Norway/Denmark/Belgium and France.

If it is of use I will type some of it up and put it on here. I do not need details but can provide this data if anybody needs it.

Hello Black6,

Do you have any information on Unteroffizier F. Lassen of Stab I./KG 30 who was killed 10th of May and was buried at Arnhem?

Kind regards,
Timon

According to my information Wosczyna was shot down May 10th and not on May 11th.

Black 6,

I would be interested in obtaining a list for the Netherlands. Probably a lot of data is already known through the WASt Gräberkarteikarten, but nothing wrong with an additional check. As long as the data is based on notes from a visit to the WASt.

Cheers,

John

Hello Black6,

Similar info for Belgium would be very interesting to me.

Best regards

Luc

That would have been the source John, thousands of cards checked and notes on the useful ones.
It sounds as if the data is already available so that saves me a lot of typing up notes, many thanks

Thank you very much for the info! Are these times in German time?
If so, 07:10, would be 05:30 local right?

Kind regards,

Black 6,

Well, you made all the notes and I surely would like to see them. It makes our life in updating the Dutch Loss Register (SGLO database) easier. Otherwise we would need to check every single Karteikarte. Any possibility in getting a total list for the Netherlands?

Cheers,

John
