Oblt Hermann Reese

Hello.
Currently I'm investigating the crash of a Messerschmitt BF110 flown by Oblt Hermann Reese. On the 7th of August 1942 he crashed with his BF110 in Sint- Michielsgestel , Holland. Reese was badly injured in this crash. I don't know anything about what happened with his wirless operator . Hermann Reese flew with 2./NJG1 at the time of the crash. For my investigation I'm in search for information about Hermann Reese or about his crash.
Can someone help me with some information?
Regards Mike.

It was as a result of enemy action. Bf 110 F-4, 4626, G9+BK of 2/NJG 1. No information on his BF as he baled out and landed uninjured. This is what is on him in the Career Summary site:
