Hi Luc,

Both these airmen were 1st.Warts killed when a Ju 52 transporting goundcrewmen of 1st and 2nd Staffeln of KG 6 crashed by Spa Belgium while on a Transfer Flight. The NVM gives 12 ground crew killed and puts the cause to enemy nightfighter original burials ar Brusthem b. St.Trond.

Brian,

Many thanks for your reply.
G6+MU was a Ju52 which crashed at Stoumont (postalcode 4987) on 29/01/1944 and probably all aboard got killed.
For the same date I found on the Volksbund website :
Ofw. Herbert Stuhr, Ofw. Fritz Kreidler,Gefr.Karl Wegand,Fw. Erhard Binner,Fw.Werner Rothenberg,Uffz.Max Reissmann,Gefr.Herbert Diebold,
Uffz.Ferdinand Reuss, Uffz.Max Schoeppner,Fw.Karl Tolle and Fw.Walter Leffler.
Are this the passengers ?

Many thanks and best regards from a cold Belgium.
