Re: 22 Aug 44 P-47 near Tours sur Marne (nr Athis)

Thanks Larry. The lat/longs for Plivot in the intelligence summary you give are right in the centre of the current Plivot airfield. Do you know if those lat/longs for Plivot were extracted from a WW2 intelligence report? Or are they a modern addition? I notice that Plivot is alo described as "(aka Athis)" If that were part of the original report then I imagine that settles the matter - ATHIS/PLIVOT were one and the same.

The purpose of my September visit will be to establish the exact locations of airfields in the Tours-sur-Marne area which were active in August 1944. I shall report back here when I know more.
