The RAF Missing Research & Enquiry Unit found the graves of the Wylie crew. This is the first page of their report to HQ. It details what the local German population saw on the night of the crash. The description of the location of the bodies is typical of such crashes.

The Baker Minute
Sgt Baker was a member of Wylie's crew who bailed out and was captured. He made this statement through Senior British Officer in the camp to the International Red Cross. This would be the first news of what happened. i.e. the aircraft blew up in the air.

Page two of the MR & EU Report describes the location of the graves and suggests that they be marked as a crew and not exhumed. They were exhumed at a later date and individually identified. Thus they could be given individual headstones and grave locations. See letter to Wylie's widow (1951)

CIMETIÈRE DE GUERRE DE HANOVRE Allemagne
On se rend au cimetière militaire de Hanovre, qui jouxte le cimetière de guerre de Hanovre, en empruntant l'autoroute A2 E30 qui va de Dortmund à Berlin. À l'intersection avec la B441, tournez à droite sur la B441 et suivez les panneaux indiquant Hanovre, Ahlem et Seelze. Après avoir fait 7 kilomètres, tournez à droite sur la Seelzestrasse en direction de Harenburg. Après avoir fait 5 kilomètres et être entré dans Harenburg, tournez à gauche sur la Harenberger Miele. Au sortir de Harenburg, vous vous dirigerez vers Hanovre. Le cimetière militaire et le cimetière de guerre de Hanovre se trouvent à 3 kilomètres.
Pour plus d’informations, visitez la Commission des sépultures de guerre du Commonwealth (site disponible en anglais seulement).
