Re: ? 4.(Schl)/LG2
Dénes/Remi,
Yes, Hs123 is correct. The association of the grave with a relatively undamaged force-landed a/c, L2+BM, is well documented in the photos from several sides and angles. The exact location, however, could be subject to debate or dispute. Dénes, we very often find that if the force-landing happened behind Allied lines, it was listed as a 100% loss in German records, even if the a/c could later be recovered and repaired after the Germans occupied the area of the crash site. I don't know the geography of the area well enough to know whether the Germans were in control of the area proposed in our entry for the crash site at the time that this happened. I'm sure someone else on this board will know the answer to that. I would certainly welcome any additional input on the subject.
Regards,
