| Description |
On Kornwerderzand this monument can be found. It is the tail of the Lockheed Hudson FK790 which crashed on 6 July 1944. One of the occupants in the aircraft was Jan Bockma, a Dutchman who voluntarily reported at the French Foreign Legion in 1942. Later he was a secret agent for the Dutch BBO (Bureau Special Assignments), a part of the SOE. For this office he made his last flight in this Hudson. They were on a secret sabotage mission and were shot down by a German Night fighter. All 8 occupants (incl. 4 crew) were killed in the crash. Aquarel by Dutch artist Dirk van Rijn In de nacht van 5 op 6 juli 1944 vertrok het vliegtuig vanaf vliegbasis Tempsford, bij Londen, naar Nederland. Aan boord waren 8 personen, 4 Engelse vliegers en 4 Nederlandse geheimagenten. De in Engeland opgeleide agenten zouden boven de Appelsche heide, bij Nijkerk GLD, uit het toestel springen en het verzet ondersteunen tegen de Duitsers. Boven de Waddenzee is het toestel mogelijk getroffen door een Duitse jager en 4 km ten westen van Kornwerderzand neergestort in het IJsselmeer. Alle 8 inzittenden zijn omgekomen en 7 lichamen zijn indertijd drijvend aangetroffen. In 1997 zijn de overblijfselen van de gezagvoerder uit de wrakstukken geborgen. Aquarel van de Nederlandse kunstenaar Dirk van Rijn |
