[pointedeflèche]

The 5th of September 1944 a small Allied plane (fighter aircraft?) was shot down by German Flak.

The Allied pilote was able to bale out and was hidden by the resistance people of the Belgian village named Gottechain (presently referred to as Bossut-Gottechain).

The aircraft itself hit a pigsty before ending up in a little creek named 'Le Train'. Two pigs were killed in the fire.

The creek runs through the rural villages named Grez-Doiceau and Archennes, both villages are situated only a couple of miles to the north/ northeast of the city of Wavre (Belguim).

In the direct vicinity of the above villages was situated the German airbase know as Le Culot (now referred to as Beauvechain).

Any information regarding this particular crash would be much appreciated.
