Websites, Books, Etc. Dealing With U.S. Bombers That Crashed In Germany
 
I wasn't sure exactly where to post this thread, but I am looking for websites, books or anything at all that has descriptions, photos and any particulars on U.S. bombers that crashed in Germany during WW II. Photos, eyewitness accounts, info from archives ANYTHING concerning crash sites of US bombers in Germany. I am particularly interested in the area around Wilhelmshaven.

Regards,

Art Castle

I'm not sure if this is the area you want, but found this site to be very well detailed and interesting. It provides both German and English on the page also.

Fo the B-17, the most comprehensive book is The B-17 Flying Fortress Story by Roger A. Freeman with David Osborne. Every B-17 is listed by tail code and those that crashed have the location or reported location. You might want to look up Missing Aircrew Reports (abbreviated MACR), some of which are available online.
