Re: Need wheat harvest dates on Channel Coast in 1940

Hello'
well 3/JG2 pilots had to make a airfield themselves, late june 40..
Franz Javinish, was the first to land, he made it ok.wheat field 3 feet high.
then others followed him..but could not take off again..then a truck came. they rolled not cut the wheat..
Beaumont le Roger was the home of 3/JG2 for the next 4 years.
