Re: Bombing Raid 8 March 1943
There are a couple of MACRs that might help (or maybe confuse the situation more).
B-24 41-23988, 44th BG, MACR 15333, was shot down 9 miles N of Rouen at 14:05 on that date. Target is listed in the MACR as Rouen.
B-17 41-24588, 305th BG is listed with a target of Rouen went down in the channel 10 miles of Selsey Bill on the return flight, MACR 15718.
(Based on the high MACR numbers, these both appear to be after-the-fact MACRs as listed on fold3, done months or even years or so after the crashes. These types of MACRs were often done to answer questions raised by families of the missing men.)
