Re: Accurate crash locations 1./128 15 Aug 43

The two 266 Squadron pilots were Flight Lieutenant Wright and Flight Sergeant Erasmus, and they claimed the two Fw 190s were shot up and damaged near Guipavas. Landerneau is just 11.5 km E of Guipavas. The land in between is farm and pasture land with some small woods, the largest of these covering 3 x 1.75 km and running to the W and SW of Landerneau.

N.B.: I wonder if the 266 Sqdn. ORB might have more details on the crash site? Or any of these Lw. afld. command files at BA-MA?
Koflug 10/XII Morlaix: Anlagen covering May - August 1943 available.
Fl.Pl.Kdo. A 15/XII (Jan 43 – Apr/Jun 44) Brest-Guipavas - possibly.
Fl.H.Kdtr. A (See) 304/XI (Mar 43 – Jun 44) Brest-Poulmic - none listed.
