Re: Lancaster ND969
Thanks Michael, Hopefully you are right and someone will have more info. My dad gave me some further info regarding that night. He thinks it was Luxembourg because when he was captured they walked him approximately 20 miles to Triere. There they spent the night in an airraid shelter where a young boy around 10 or 11 years of age approached him and asked him in fluent English if he would speak to two German pilots. These pilots told him they thought they had shot him down to which he replied that he didn't think that was very nice of them and they laughed and said better him than them.
He said he was treated very nicely by the Luftwaffe before he was sent to the Dulag Luft, Dortmund.
This will be another post.
Thanks Leslie
