Crashed B-17s, Poland, March 15 1945

Hello,

I am looking for deeper informations about crashes of two B-17s of 2nd BG 15th AF on contemporary territory of Poland: s/n 44-6671 and s/n 44-6674 on March 15 1945. Could somebody give me exactly place of crash? I am keen on if somebody described in some article or book their stories as well.

Thanks for help

Michal
