Missing crew Ju 88 of 5/LG1
I am looking for any record of the crew of a Ju 88 of 5/LG1, shot down at the Jumps, West Tisted, Hampshire
5.30pm. on Aug. 15th 1940. Fw H Pauck > Uffz K Glitzner > Fw D Rugge > Uffz E Woldt The aircraft was obliterated in the crash, and I have pics of the wreckage. It is said that the remains of the crew were thrown in a small trench near a water trough. I think I have found that area near the hedgerow, and the farmer may well give permission to investigate further. Before that happens, I would like to see if there may be relatives still contactable in Germany, and also , if there is any official notice of the loss of the aircraft on that day. My final intention is to raise a memorial nearby, so that these men will be remembered. Hope someone will help me start the ball rolling. (Pics. of wreckage on the day, and the suspected hedgerow where the remains of the crew are buried.) |
