oh i think you are right! Thanks for this! I was not aware that there are multiple Wichers. I have updated it on the post text.
Thanks for posting it. I thought it was interesting and looked around a bit and saw there were not only two Wichers, but they both met their demise in the same area.
Actually it was a total random find.
I sometimes browse Google Earth for interesting pictures to share here. The reason why I was looking in this area, is because I just finished reading a book on how German refugees were treated in Northern Denmark after WWII. The book describes the evacuation from Danzig and the utter chaos that went on when the Germans finally realized that they needed to evacuate because of the advances of the red army. I wanted to check out the locations, and saw those two wrecks! I assumed it was from then, as a lot of refugee ships were bombed, both by the Axis and the Allies at that time!
