Re: Uffz S. Huber July 17 1940
Gentlemen, two Ju87Bs of 11.(St)/LG1 were lost over the Channel off Dover on 14 July 1940. The crews were Oberlt Kurt SONNBERG & Uffz Fritz DONATH, and Uffz Sebastian HUBER & Uffz Heinz HECKE. The body of SONNBERG was brought ashore at Boulogne by the SND & HUBER washed up later on the Dutch coast. For a full transcript of the BBC Radio commentary by Charles Gardner see Blitz Vol.1 pp138/9. The attached memorial card was recently auctioned on eBay.
