Re: Berlin Battle 12sep44- 367BS/306BG

Hi

New research and new documents would provide information on the crash site of the P-51B of Ellison.
Fl.H.Kdtr Finow / Mark reported the crash of an American fighterplan at 11:30 am. Aircraft crashed in flames, pilot believed under the wreck. Place: Eichwerder, Ortsrandsiedlung.
Plane (airunit) can not be determined. For me it is the only known P-51 crash in this area.
The next P-51 crash is near Müncheberg (Lt.Broadwater). He was buried in Werder 4km SE Müncheberg.
I think that Ellison was able to leave his plane. Probably he was immediately found, but could not be assigned to the fighter crash. The death places of many Airmen were spread over the large area of Eberswalde.
