Guten Abend Hans,
good evening Frank !
Robert Reynolds P-51 came down on that day at about 12:45 hrs near the village of Neuerburg, Kreis Wittlich, Germany. Neuerburg is today a suburb of Wittlich-town and is located at the East of the town.
There was always some confusion about the general crash-location since there are two towns named Neuerburg in the general area. In this case it was possible, to locate the incident to the Wittlich Neuerburg.
For more inf, please contact me by PM.
Best wishes
Horst Weber
