Blievernicht crew, 1(F)./122, 21 March 1940
On 21 March 1940 a He 111H-3 of 1(F)./122 ran out of fuel while spotting convoys in the Shetlands - Orkneys area for KG 26 and force landed near Flensburg on return. It was destroyed at 100%. Oblt. Blievernicht and 2 other crew were killed and 1 injured.
I found today a German cemetery list (http://www.denkmalprojekt.org/2012/h...k2_a-c_hh.html) showing an Oblt Hans Gustav Blievernicht who died on 21 March 1940 and belonged to 1.(F)/122 (Feldp. L 38630). The death date is listed as Handwitt, but it is probably a typo for Handewitt, a place just west of Flensburg and close to Flensburg-Schäferhaus airfield. Can someone confirm the crash place ? I will be interested too in the full list of the crew. Thanks in advance
