Need someone who knows the appearance of Amiens & St Omer France in 1940, especially the cathedrals in these two towns

Hello,

Members of the EOE WG (Working Group) have acquired a number of photos of a belly landed Do17P from 2.(F)/123, 4U+CK, which came down intact in a grain field on the outskirts of a large city with a distinctive cathedral (maybe two) in the background. Handwritten notes on the back of two of these photos say "bei Ameins,' and "bei St Omer." Both Amiens and St. Omer have large, distinctive cathedrals. I'm looking for someone who knows those places, preferably who lives there, to look at these photos and see if the distinctive town in the background can be identified and the crash location matched, which then will probably lead us to a confirmed identity for the incident.

Who can help? Contact me by PM for info on the photos, or contact me by direct email if we are already in touch.

Regards,
