[Melvin Brownless]

Hi all,

We are currently investigating the loss of Dornier Do17Z Wnr.2596 of Stab KG76 which crashed at Sundridge. Kent after collision with F/Lt P. C Hughes on the 7th September 1940. We currently have a page of remembrance for F/Lt Hughes on our website and would like to contruct a page of remembrance for the Dornier crew. We would really appreciate further details regarding the Dornier especially a copy of the NVM for this loss.

Kind regards,

Melvin
