Uffz. Karl Bay, + 07.09.1940
Gentlemen,
Uffz. Karl Bay of an unknown unit died in a crash of his a/c on 7th September 1940 in Germany. His unit is given as "Einheit 04345". I was not able to find a regarding entry in the GQM returns (even in those of "Schulen und sonstige Verbände"). Is there anythong known about this loss? Regards, Heuser |

I believe that this aircraft crashed in the early hours of 7 September 1940 as follows:
4./KG26 Heinkel He111H-4 (5704). Crash-landed near Köppern on return from night sortie a.m. Cause not stated. BF Uffz Karl Bay killed, FF Uffz Hermann Kassel badly injured - admitted to hospital in Bad Homburg, rest of crew unhurt. Aircraft 1H+FM 100% write-off. |
