Joe,

Thanks for this. I was not aware that Lt Beubler and Uffz Fischer of I./KG66 (the unit I'm investigating) had their graves at Hull Northern Cemetery, not to mention the fact that they don't even have a headstone...(Wonder why their relatives - if they have any, of course - couldn't help out here..) BTW, do you know where the other members of Beubler's crew (Beobachter Uffz Heinz Urban and Bordschütze Uffz Erwin Pausch) were buried?

Regards,

Marcel

Re: Luftwaffe Graves UK

Hi Melvin,

Still going strong. I'm sitting on a goldmine of info (with too little time to process it) and new data is still pouring in. In fact, thanks to this thread and Joe Potter, I got some new exciting material!

Regards,

Marcel
