German graves at Scapa Flow

Hi,

Maybe someone could help me with this.
These two soldiers are buried in the Navy Cemetery of Lyness, Hoy Island, Scapa Flow. I would like to know if they were part of any Luftwaffe crew shot down during the war.

Thanks in advance!

Douglas.

Re: German graves at Scapa Flow

Ofw Herbert Kolberg was shot down on 1939-12-07. Therefore the date in a grave is false. Maybe he was washed on shore on 1940-02-06?
