Luftwaffe Graves UK

Hi Guys,

I am wondering if any forum members can help with my request of help.
Due to redundancy I lost my job as a delivery driver a couple of years ago. When I was working I was very active photographing Luftwaffe graves in England, nowadays, due to the cost of fuel etc my excursions are limited to say the least!

So I thought I would put the feelers out to see in any forumites might have some in their collections. Or maybe you live near to a burial site where pictures could be taken. If you are interested in helping or can help, please send me a pm with your e-mail address and I will get back to you.

In anticipation,

Melvin

Melvin,
Do you need any from Ireland even though we are not in the UK ? I can organise some from the German Cemetery at Glencree near Dublin.
Regards
Tony K

Re: Luftwaffe Graves UK

Melvin,
I've got photos of all the Erprobungsgruppe 210 men re-interred in Cannock Chase if you would like them.
Also some photos of the graves of other Bf 110 men buried there.

Happy to provide you with copies of all should you so wish. Just let me know.
