Willi Schröder

On 20/7-1940 a member of the Luftwaffe Willy Schröder was found washed ashore on the beach of Blaavand on the Danish west coast. He was born in Berlin on 24/9-1912. Apparently the body was handed over to the Wehrmacht as he there is no recording of him being buried in Denmark.
Searching on Kriegsgråaberfürsorge this came up:

Willi Schröder ruht auf der Kriegsgräberstätte in Berlin-Cha.-Luisenkirchhof III. Endgrablage: Reihe Nor Grab 163

Nachname:Schröder
Vorname:Willi
Dienstgrad:Gefreiter
Geburtsdatum:24.09.1912
Geburtsort:Berlin-Charlottenburg
Todes-/Vermisstendatum:09.04.1940
Todes-/Vermisstenort: nicht verzeichnet

In addition I have recieved this: Galt seit dem 9/4-40 als Angehöriger der Einheit Reserve-Flughafen-Betriebs-Kompanie (mot) 2/8 vermisst. Am 20/7-40 wurde er in Blavand Huk/Dänemark angetrieben. Übergefürt nach Berlin Luisen-Kirchhof III Ehrenmal Nord nr. 16

But how did he end up in the North sea ?
