544 Sqn on 19/8/1944

Hi,

Does anyone know where crashed Mosquito PR Mk XVI MM354 on 19th August 1944 ?
Mossie with crew F/O Vickers DFM & F/S Moseley photographed railways in Paris area and was attacked by a pair of Bf 109. Badly damaged it crashed into a wood in "no mans land". Injured crew were picked up by Amerian advanced patrol.

TIA,
Michal

Hi Mark,

Thank you for info.
Regrettably I cannot introduce this new info into my article for Revi magazine. A new issue was closed just yesterday, and is going to rolling-press on Monday.

Regards,
Michal
