Re: RAF 156 Sqdn Lancaster Crash Site

Hi Wayne !

The Lanc III (ND384/GT-D) from 156 Sqn was shot down at 05.15 h on January 2 1944 by the Hptm. Ludwig Meister, Staffelkapitän of the 1./NJG 4, and crashed at Estinnes-au-Val near the road going to Bray. All members of the crew were killed. Among them there was the P/O Allan Morassi, who was the son of Giuseppe and Furina Morassi coming from Brussels.

At Grandrieu, it was the Lanc I (DV308/SR-V) from 101 Sqn. This aircraft was shot down at 05.45 h by the Kommandeur of the NJG 4, Wilhelm Herget.

Kindest regards.
