Re: Unknown B-17
FrankieS,
I pruned the photo, but there are no traces of fire.
ron_Ra,
According SGLO Lossregister: Liempde crash of 43-38188. This crash is known
B-17 at Sprang Capelle is known. AW-U
B-17 42-97981 AW-K. The crash site of this a/c is unknown. It is given as Vden, Uden and Udenhout. Most probably Vden and Uden are the same. There is no known crash of a B-17 at Uden. It is not Udenhout either, I have seen photos of a burning AW-K.
The two kia were buried in Margraten Cemetery on November 23, 2 days after the crash. I think it most unlikely that (at that time) the bodies were taken to a cemetery a hundred kms away, with so many (temporarely) allied cemeteries "around the corner".
Both thanks for your contribution,
pp
