Hello George,

Thank you for your answer.
So, I don’t have other one detail.

I have simply the name of the aircrew, buried at Bourges, names which correspond exactly to those of the ones killed on Lezignan airfield.

The website “Volksbund Deutsche Kriegsgräberfürsorge e.V.” points out for two members of crew: Ogefr. Haase Theobald killed 2 km südöstl. Casne (surely Cosne) on 17.06.1944 and Gef. Bertmann Fritz killed at Cosne 18.06.1944.

The place of accident would correspond then better with a burial at Bourges (Center France) which is 60km S. S.-W. of Cosne and wherein there was a German military graveyard at the time. Lezignan airfield (on south France) belongs at least to 450-500 km from Bourges and I don’t understand why this aircrew would have been buried as far from its place of accident.

All the best,
Frederic
