Re: German loss on March 23, 1944 - Pleucadeuc, Brittany, France
Hello John and Chris,
Thank you John for these additional details. And the NVM is right Chris, Molac (near Pleucadeuc) il located East North-East of Vannes, France. The German unit billeted at the chateau de Villeneuve is the Festungs Pionier Stab 17, under command of Oberst Dr. Ing. Wilhelm Göller. I read that the aircrews were training for low-level flights, which is probably the reason for this accident, as the witness mentions that the plane was flying low.
Best regards,
Frederic
