Re: Information about a plane crash on March 28th 1945 an english ( or canadian) plane crashed near Schoonrewoerd in the Netherlands

Hi Leendert, Pierre & others


The Oberleutnant Klaus Degler of the "radarstelle" was personally responsible for the execution of 14 civilians from the vilage of Wamel. After the war a request was made for an investigation but this was not pursued for unclear reasons. In 2006 a new investigation clearly pointed to Klaus Degler.

"Toen de Oberleutnant weer uit het café naar buiten liep, moesten de militairen zich opstellen, met de gevangen burgers voorop. Op bevel van de Oberleutnant marcheerden allen door de coupure in de richting van de rivier de Waal. Toen allen door de coupure waren, hoorde de waardin meerdere malen schieten met een machinepistool en later enkele schoten met een revolver of pistool. Volgens de waardin had alleen de Oberleutnant een machinepistool voor zijn borst gehad.
Bij de kademuur was een Duitse wacht neergezet. De volgende ochtend zijn de lijken opgehaald. De waardin omschreef de Oberleutnant als een man, klein van postuur, lengte ongeveer 1,70 meter, fijn gebouwd en mager van uiterlijk"

If it is so easy for someone to kill 14 innocent people it will be very easy to kill one airman! Yesterday I also got information that the occupants of one of the houses near the crash had a memorial stone placed there depicting a plane. I will check this out.

Peter
