Re: crashed Ju88 identity
Pieter,
Not added to my lists yet but it certainly has my full attention. It seems that you have already decided that the photo and the burials are associated ? This may well be so, but I know of no evidence for this. Also, we have assumed that the three dead are Lw aircrew but, again, I know of nothing to confirm that is the case. I do suspect this may well be an hitherto unrecorded Lw loss & as such it needs to be documented with some care. Recommend a check on the original burial records to establish a) where the bodies were found & b) any other useful information - like an ID number etc. Checking known Ju88 losses for 12 - 13 May 1940 is a fruitless task. As you say, only one 1.(F)/121 on 12 May & one 8./KG30 on 13 May. I believe you will find that the 3.(F)/122 loss that you mention on 13 May is a duplication for that lost on 14 May 1940. Where is an expert on German burials in Belgium when you need one ?
