Re: Lt. Bud Wentz B-17 on German Airfield

Dear Mr. de Jong,

thanks for your refering to your information of Dec. 2004. Since then Arno Rose and me had an extensive correspondence with Budd Wentz. He was not very happy about the fact that he was supposed to have landed his B-17 at St.Trond (A-92). His A/C was so havely damaged that he had to land within 20-30 min. Fortunately some crewmembers detected the German Airfield whose name I am looking for. Based on our present informations it might be the Airfield of Wernershöh' nearby Hildesheim.
If you wish I am happy to furnish informations we have received from Budd Wentz.
Kind regards
Fritz Marktscheffel
