Re: An Impossible Task?

We will probably need to look at 42-97363 (from the 96th BG, 413th BS) more carefully as the crew was quite spread out when they were captured. Capture locations include Bleckmar, Scharnhorst, Dedelstorf, Osterloh and Sandlingen. The plane itself crashed "North of Celle", but no specific location seems to be given by the Germans.

The other two 96th BG planes lost that day crashed quite a ways away from this area.
