Does anyone know if there was a plane crash or crashes on Febr. 19, 1944 in Belgium / Antwerp? I have several KIA on this day and looking to there EKM they seem to be Luftwaffe: 57357, 69647, 2694.

Hi Bart,

A Ju52/3m crashed in the Passendalestraat at Berchem, after a collision with the H.Sacramentschurch.

Best regards from Belgium

Luc

Re: Plane crash 19 Febr 44
Hi,

Luftwaffe officers Carreer summaries 1935-1945 By Henry L. deZeng IV and Douglas G. Stankey mentions :
KLOSE, Paul. 18/19.02.44 Lt., 2./KG 2 KIA - Do 217 M-1 (U5+OK) crashed in Antwerpen after striking a church steeple.

SCHRÖDER, Karl. 18/19.02.44 Lt., 2./KG 2 KIA - Do 217 M-1 (U5+OK) crashed in Antwerpen after striking a church steeple


Is this correct or was it a Ju52/3m, as mentioned earlier (by me) ?

Best regards

Luc

Hello Luc and Adrian,
I have 6 KIA on this day, could it be two planes collided like the Do 217 (crew of 4) and Ju 52 (crew of 2) ?
