“A Midsummer Night's Dream“ — Gustave Doré (1870)

Heinz-Georg Möllenbrok, a Luftwaffe officer POW disembarking in Newhaven, England glances contemptuously at a British guard, 1941

Lt. Heinz-Georg Möllenbrok (aged 20) was shot down in his Dornier 17Z-2 (U5+LL) of 3./KG2 on 16 August 1940, on his 20th mission and seriously wounded (his right hand was crushed in his attempt to bail out) during the raid on RAF Hornchurch, Essex. He was the victim of British Hurricane pilot, Frederick "Taffy" Higginson of RAF No. 56 Sq.

He is seen here disembarking from the Hospital ship 'Dinard', the guard is an Intelligence Corps Sgt. and they are at Newhaven harbour in Sussex, UK on 6 October 1941. He and other seriously wounded German POWs were being repatriated to Germany via Sweden, but at the last moment Berlin decided to halt the exchange, as they weren't happy with the disparity in the numbers of Allied troops expected to return from German POW camps, so he and the others had to return to their Camps or Hospitals.
