The wreckage of a British World War II bomber that crashed, killing all eight crew members on board after likely being shot down by a German warplane, has washed up on a Dutch beach in what has been described as a “unique find.”
The downed bomber, identified as a Short Stirling MK1 and specifically listed as the Short Stirling BF396 airplane, as each individual aircraft had its own designation, crashed on Dec. 17, 1942.
