Hi,

Is there a full list somewhere of POWs from captured Luftwaffe crew brought down over the UK?

The personnel indices of The Blitz Then & Now Volumes I - 3 is probably your best source for such details.

The first loss did not result in any POWs. If we were to start a list on 12 OCH, it would be massive so let's not go there!

Another good source is Luftwaffe crash archive Volume 1-8. I find that it complements the Blitz Then and Now series with details.
