Re: Ju88 from 4./LG1 shot down 15 Aug 1940
The Junkers 88 that made the forced landing is quite well photographed. I used to have the cockpit canopy from this aircraft and this is now in the Shoreham Aviation Museum.
The missing crew of the other Ju 88 nearby were killed in the crash and remains were buried at the site. Items like uniform fragments and a parachute release box etc have been found in recent years, but there is no known local burial of the remains. (A case for Joe Potter?) Photos exist of both crashes and I think I am correct in saying there is colour film of the forced-landed Ju 88 - but I may be thinking of another incident?
