Re: Crash C-47 A at 09.April 1945 in Wahn

I think page 9 text is:

"The following unauthorized passengers were aboard C-47A 42-23604 which crashed 9 April 1945, according to ?record? this MACR (?PW AGO?) (?Prev A 6 0?)"

I don't think there is a reference to prisoners of war but I am not sure exactly what the final "word" or abbreviations are.

I think the plane took off from France, delivered fuel at Eschwege and was taking the 5 passengers back to France. They may have been wounded, but I don't know. The plane got off course and flew directly over the area on the East Bank of the Rhine where the Germans were still fighting.
