In 1932, pilot Hans Bertram and mechanic Adolph Klausmann were rescued while attempting to circumnavigate the world in a Junkers W 33 seaplane. After departing Koepang, Indonesia, they endured a storm in the Timor Sea on 15 May and were forced to land in a remote coastal area of the Kimberley region, North-Western Australia. The stranded men spent almost six weeks severely deprived of food and water and were close to death when they were rescued by a search party of local Aboriginal people on 22 June. pp. 110 illusts #0817/0320 SCARCE
