4 september 1944 Ammo Train destroyed by sraffing in Burgundy
Am 4 september 1944,one big train of ammos ( Lw bombs,schells, V1 parts, torps ...)was destroyed By Allieds fighters bombers In the sector of the French village Beire le Fort near Genlis Town,between Dijon Burgundy and Dole (Jura) .
( its not the train destroyed in Perreuil Sâone Loire the same day )
We never know who destroyed this train.
Diverses possibillity : Spitfires, P-38 or Thunderbolts, Américans or Frenchs ...
Yesterday, we found bullets cal 50, so it's certainly one attack by P-47 thunderbolt .
French's thunderbolt coming from Rhône walley or US P- 47 ?
